Groundbreaking for the "Global Learning Center"
Toyota Boshoku Corporation (Headquarters: Kariya, Aichi Pref., President: Shuhei Toyoda) has
recently started the construction of the "Global Learning Center," which is intended to develop
and strengthen the human resources of the Toyota Boshoku Group, that covers 21 countries
around the world.
This Learning Center is being constructed as a base for the training of foreign executives of
overseas entities, the pre-assignment training for employees assigned overseas, and for the
training for domestic managers/employees by duty position, etc. The Center will be
well-equipped with ancillary facilities including a seminar room, with a simultaneous interpretation
booth to allow the use of multiple languages in the meetings/training of foreign employees from
overseas entities; an accommodation facility; a restaurant which will also be open to the general
public; and others.
The building is also designed to be environmentally-friendly with all-electric in-house equipment,

It is scheduled to be completed in September 2008 and to start utilization in October.
