Abstract: The beginnings of entrepreneurship development programmes (EDPs) can be traced back to the early 1960s. While the movement has gained consid erable momentum since then, attempts to evaluate their effectiveness and impact are being made only since the lastfew years. Not only are the studies directed to this end few in number, they by and large have assessed these programmes with reference only to the number of trainees launching their own enterprises. This, the authors claim, is too limited a criterion. They employ a more comprehensive framework to evaluate such programmes organised in a specific region of the country.
