Are Olive Garden chefs really trained in Tuscanny, Italy?

I don't believe that for a minute, but their commercials claim they do. I think maybe they send some chefs there for training but not to be your local OG chef. I think it's for their corporate kitchens where they develop the menu. Does anyone have insider knowledge about this?
