The Analysis of Training Program on Entrepreneurship Development: The Moderating Role of Business Startup and Entrepreneurial Ecosystem
Abstract
This study analyze the impact of training programs on entrepreneurship development, with the role of startup businesses and entrepreneurial ecosystems examined as moderating variables. A quantitative approach was employed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with SmartPLS 3. Data were collected from 30 student entrepreneurs in Indonesia who were in the early stages of building a business. The result show that training program have a direct and significant effect on both development of entrepreneurship and on the formation of startup business. Additionally, startup businesses significantly moderate the relationship between training programs and entrepreneurial development. However, the entrepreneurial ecosystem does not demonstrate a significant impact, either as moderating variable. These findings suggest that, while theoretically relevant, the entrepreneurial ecosystem may not function effectively as a moderating variable in this context. Future research is advised to consider the entrepreneurial ecosystem as either an independent or control variable to better capture its contextual influence on entrepreneurship. This study contributes empirically and methodologically to the on going discourse on entrepreneurship development and highlights the strategic importance of training programs and startup business support initiatives.
