| dc.description.abstract | The objective of this thesis was to investigate the effects of entrepreneurship training in TVET programs as a source of motivation for entrepreneurship at Entoto and General Wingate TVET Colleges. To achieve this purpose, descriptive survey method was applied. Representative sample of trainees and graduates of 1999 E.C. and entrepreneurship instructors were involved as subjects of the study. Questionnaires and interview were applied as data collecting tools. Based on the investigation in the study, the training of entrepreneurship had positively contributed in enabling trainees/graduates acquire business skills and competencies useful in identifying business opportunities and run their own businesses. Moreover, the training of entrepreneurship had shown positive impact on trainees in motivating them to think of self-employment as a career option. The intention to engage in self-employment/entrepreneurship among trainees was found significant while they were at colleges than following graduations. This has an implication that graduates failed to keep their motivation to self-employment following graduations due to the limitation in the quality of training and the inadequate provisions of services and follow-ups after graduation. One of the recommendations forwarded to keep trainees motivation to self-employment/entrepreneurship was the provision of continuous support to those graduates who want to engage in their own businesses and enhance the delivery of training. Hence, barriers to self-employment could be overcome or reduced. Moreover, it was recommended that training should be given to entrepreneurship instructors for the effective delivery of the training in TVET programs | en_US |
