Abstract

Though pervasive and popular, entrepreneurial training programs do not have a systemized, established approach for evaluating their efficacy. Therefore, the effectiveness of the programs is not well understood, and the need to assess entrepreneurial training for experienced entrepreneurs is pressing. This study’s objective was to provide a strategy to use in judging entrepreneurial training efficacy employing frameworks and models available in entrepreneurial training and education, as well as organizational and management theories, such as the Theory of Planned Behavior. The research question was, "What is the efficacy of entrepreneurial training programs for experienced business owners." A conceptual model and propositions are presented as an inductive approach for future programs, along with the research findings on the efficacy of an entrepreneurial training program from the perspective of experienced business owners. The contribution of the study towards developing effective entrepreneurial training programs for experienced business owners is explored.
创业培训项目的有效性:对有经验的企业家有影响吗?
虽然创业培训项目无处不在,也很受欢迎,但它们并没有一个系统化的、成熟的方法来评估它们的效果。因此,这些项目的有效性还没有得到很好的理解,对有经验的企业家进行创业培训的评估是迫切需要的。本研究的目的是利用创业培训和教育中现有的框架和模型,以及组织和管理理论,如计划行为理论,提供一种用于判断创业培训效果的策略。研究的问题是,“对于经验丰富的企业主来说,创业培训项目的效果如何?”本文提出了一个概念模型和命题,作为对未来项目的归纳方法,以及从经验丰富的企业主的角度对创业培训项目有效性的研究结果。本研究对于为有经验的企业主制定有效的创业培训计划的贡献。
