This paper addresses this mentioned shortcoming by practically applying the
entrepreneurial performance training model to three different training interventions,
known as the business start-up, basic entrepreneurship and advanced
entrepreneurship programmes. The business start-up programme assist respondents
to start businesses, respondents attending the basic entrepreneurship programme are
guided on how to run and manage their micro businesses more effectively and
respondents on the advanced entrepreneurship programme are assisted to grow their
established businesses. Mentorship is also a part of all three programmes and the
content of the mentorship programme depends on the needs of the respondents from
the three different training programmes.
