This training manual goes beyond the narrow approach that sees training as the major contribution to women entrepreneurship development (WED), and introduces a wide range of support mechanisms, including research, networking and association building, market access, and a broad spectrum of business development services (BDS). It is aimed at a range of support agencies for setting up training programmes and courses in WED. The manual is composed of eight modules, each module involving a number of sessions: Module 1: Gender and enterprise; Module 2: Markets; Module 3: Business development services for WED; Module 4: The enabling environment for WED; Module 5: Building associations and strategic alliances; Module 6: Finance; Module 7: Assessing impact; Module 8: Action planning.
