Tennessee is the U.S.-base for the Nissan brand â€“ itâ€™s the home of Nissan North Americaâ€™s headquarters in Nashville, plus the company has heavily invested in the state to facilitate better and more efficient manufacturing practices. This month, the automaker broke ground on another project to help enhance the companyâ€™s training and development in Decherd, Tennessee.

Located next to the Decherd Powertrain Plant, the new 21,000 sq. ft. training center will be able to accommodate up to 180 Nissan employees at a time. The building will be equipped with tools to train staff in engineering, production, maintenance and management. It is expected to be built by this fall.

Nissanâ€™s Decherd Powertrain Plant builds more than one million engines each year, earning it the title of the highest-volume powertrain plant in the country. Since opening in 1997, more than 13 million engines have rolled off the line and have ended up in the nameplates that we know and love, including the Maxima, Altima, Pathfinder, Rogue, Titan and Frontier.

This latest project is an exciting one for the 1,700 employees at the Decherd Powertrain Plant and one that will ultimately benefit all Nissan North American drivers.
