This work focuses on the neglected subject of the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education and training. The book covers the areas of: entrepreneurship and economic development; entrepreneurship theories (traditional and alternative); entrepreneurship education and training programmes; a comparative European analysis of entrepreneurship programmes; a profile of the aspiring entrepreneur; assessing effectiveness; and a framework for the design and development of entrepreneurship training programmes. Readers should gain a significant insight into the effectiveness of entrepreneurship training programmes from both the programme providers' and participants' point of view. Key features of the book include: an up-to-date review of the literature in this field; a comparative analysis of entrepreneurship programmes with a European perspective; an in-depth treatment of the effectiveness issue both on a qualitative and quantitative basis, and a longitudinal study involving a control and comparator group. The study offers a research-based framework which should not only aid designers and providers of entrepreneurship training programmes, but should also improve the effectiveness of such programmes. The framework proposed by the authors should, with appropriate adaptation, be applicable on a European scale.
