What makes for effective microenterprise training? (pdf 44kb)

This paper examines the relationship between effective training and successful microenterprises, focusing on three questions:

  • What are appropriate indicators of the effectiveness of training and technical assistance interventions directed to low income clients and their businesses?
  • Which intermediate measures are better indicators of final impact on clients and their businesses?
  • What practical approaches can programs use to document and track outcomes of training and technical assistance services on low-income clients, and how can that information be used to improve program strategy?
