YAMAHA - REVS YOUR HEART & DON BOSCO – LIVE YOUR DREAM

Representatives from the Yamaha Training School (YTA) in collaboration with Bosco Boys Home (BBH) and Technical Institute in Borivli, jointly awarded graduation certificates to 20 students of the Yamaha and two-wheeler department of the Institute on August 21. 

To ensure that only the highest level of professional technicians work on Yamaha vehicles, India Yamaha Motor introduced Yamaha Technical Academy in India, in the year 2002. YTA, based on Japan's technical education system, is part of Yamaha Motor Corporation, which is in force in all countries where Yamaha is present.
In this joint collaboration of BBH and Yamaha, a course was specifically designed for the poor, needy and the school dropouts of the community. The training was instituted, by the Institute, with the help of the Yamaha team, over a six-month period. It included theory sessions, taught by qualified staff of the Institute, and also practical sessions that provided hands-on training with equipment provided by the Yamaha service team.
The courses combine comprehensive technical information from the Yamaha factory with real world diagnostic and troubleshooting skills developed over many years of actual field experience. They offer training programmes for mechanics starting from a Beginner's course, then climbing through Bronze, Silver Engine, Silver Body and Silver Electrical. The YTA joined hands with BBH in the year 2015. 
At the graduation ceremony, Yamaha's Regional Service Manager, Tarun Thakur - the official representing Yamaha, guided the students on the scope of growth in the technical field and how to map out a successful career for oneself. 
"Technical training is essential to acquire knowledge and enhancement of skills at all levels and also to ensure that the quality standards don't get diluted during after sales service. Through this programme, the students are trained to develop highly skilled technical workforce, with greater career prospects," Thakur said. 
The others officials present were Vinod Patwa, manager of the Yamaha Technical Academy, Chandrkant Mane, deputy manager, and Mukesh Randhir, assistant manager. 
"By imparting focused training, YTA together with Bosco Boys Home and Technical Institute creates professional technicians who become trained technicians, who consistently provide best service to valued Yamaha customers," Samuel Figer, a student, said. 
Deacon Romero D' Souza, vice principal of the Institute, proposed the vote of thanks and then congratulated the students, motivating them with the advice to do well and make both Yamaha and Don Bosco proud through their work.
