India has been ranked among the worst performing countries in the area of women entrepreneurship in gender-focused global entrepreneurship survey. One way in enhancing the entrepreneurial activity in a country is by providing entrepreneurial training and education to potential and existing entrepreneurs. Hence this study was undertaken to study the socio economical profile of372 women who enrolled in the skill training programmes and to observe the impact of the training programmes on entrepreneurship. A well structured questionnaire was used to elicit the socio economic infonnation at the time of enrollment and after 6 month of completion of the training programme to study the impact. At the time of enrollment 94 per cent of the participants stated that their fiiturc focus was to establish an own business, but only 70 per cent of them were established their own trade. 89 per cent of them stated that knowdedge through the training programme was one of the reasons for their success. In depth training programmes will definitely encourage women to undertake and cross the obstacle in managing the business. | en_US |
