An Analysis of Entrepreneurship Aspects of Current Training Programs Conducted on Practicing Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs): A Case Study of Roysambu

Open access
This study sought to analyze entrepreneurial aspects of current training methods administered to micro and small enterprises (MSEs) in Roysambu. More specifically, the study aimed at understanding the mode of training conducted to MSEs within Roysambu (a suburb in Nairobi) in an effort to increase its entrepreneurial aspects. Descriptive research design was employed and the population was sampled through stratified random sampling. Structured questionnaires and observation schedules were used to collect data. Data gathered was analyzed and presented using descriptive statistics, processed by Microsoft Office Excel and SPSS and presented using graphs, pie charts, tables and percentages. Results of this study indicated that MSEs owners/managers lack key entrepreneurial traits and capabilities, most training conducted on MSEs did not cover key entrepreneurial areas and methods used were less practical and had poor feedback mechanisms. In a bid to solve above issues, the study recommended that a vibrant entrepreneurship training program must be established at Roysambu.
