PEKIN, Illi. - The all-new F-150 certainly started off the first month of the new year with a bang! As the 2015 F-150 flew off of dealership lots in the matter of days, Ford Motor Company realized it was crucial that they hire more employees to meet the demand for this best-in-class, quality pickup.

Ford has developed a production training program to support the innovative method behind the all-new F-150's production. Since it's debut, the 2015 F-150 has been known as the smartest, toughest, most capable F-150 of its kind and in order to effectively produce it, employees must understand the latest in advanced materials and technologies. These skilled trades will spend more than 400 hours participating in in-class and hands-on courses that cover everything from the installation of new equipment to the truck's advanced electrical control system.
As employees work to complete their training for the 2015 F-150 production, they will undergo a special element of the program known as the "train the trainer" model. Here workers will be expected to be subject matter experts on the all of the new F-150 equipment, allowing them to train the crew they work with on a daily basis. Production of the all-new 2015 Ford F-150 will begin at the Kansas City Assembly Plant at the end of the first quarter of 2015.
