TMP Tech evolved from TMP Founding Chairman Dr. George S.K. Ty's desire to express his gratitude to TMC for its successful 25-year partnership with the Metrobank Group of Companies which he also chairs; and to the Philippines for the many opportunities the country has provided him.
Aside from his desire to give thanks to TMC and the Philippines, the establishment of TMP Tech also came from Founding Chairman Ty's recognition of the increasing demand for qualified automotive professionals. The realization encouraged him to come up with a proposal to establish a technical school to develop Filipino automotive technicians and engineers to meet the challenges of an expanding economy and increasing mobilization. This proposition was well-received by TMC, particularly by TMC Honorary Chairman Dr. Shoichiro Toyoda. Dr. Toyoda expressed his confidence in the establishment of the school, saying, "I am optimistic about the long-term benefits that global Toyota will reap from this school. I am happy and proud that this school can support and give value to Toyota brand." Situated on a one-hectare lot within the Toyota Special Economic Zone in Santa Rosa City, Laguna, TMP Tech not only envisions world-class education for its students; it also offers its graduates promising employment opportunities with Toyota affiliates, locally and overseas. With its objectives geared towards nation-building, TMP Tech aims to provide the Filipino youth with quality education and a better future, TMP Tech started its operations on September 2013. |
"TMP Tech will be established to produce highly-skilled Filipino workers to ensure the availability of technicians to serve our local dealer network, as well as supply skilled manpower to meet global demand .”
