INTRODUCTION
Entrepreneurship is the process of designing, launching and running a new business, which is
often initially a small business. The people who create these businesses are called
entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurship has been described as the "capacity and willingness to develop, organize and
manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit." ] While
definitions of entrepreneurship typically focus on the launching and running of businesses, due to
the high risks involved in launching a start-up, a significant proportion of start-up businesses
have to close due to "lack of funding, bad business decisions, an economic crisis, lack of market
demand, or a combination of all of these."
The word 'Entrepreneur' originates from the French term 'Entreprendre' which means a person,
who undertakes the task of bringing together various resources such as money, materials and
people and manages them to achieve desired results and takes some share ' In any new venture an
entrepreneur has to face certain risks and the profit he gets is the reward for risk bearing In short
we can say that The person who set-up his business is called an entrepreneur. The output of the
process, that is, the business unit is called an enterprise. Entrepreneurs are not just bom, they can
be developed and trained to undertake ventures. However, everybody does not have the potential
to become an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurial development is essentially an educational process
and an endeavour in human resource development. It is a process in which persons are injected
with motivational drives of achievement and situations especially in business/enterprise
undertakings. In many developing countries and especially in certain backward areas of these
countries, the socio-economic environment has not been conducive to the emergence of
entrepreneurial talents.Entrepreneurship involves the performance of various functions like
seeking investment and production opportunity, organising an enterprise to undertake a new
production process, raising capital, hiring labour, arranging the supply of raw materials, finding
site, introducing new techniques and commodities, discovering new sources of raw materials and
National Institute of Small Industry Extension Training (NISIET), Hyderabad defined EDP as
“an attempt to develop a person an entrepreneur through structural training
The main purpose of such entrepreneurship development program is to widen the base of
entrepreneurship by development achievement motivation and entrepreneurial skills among the
less privileged sections of the society.
A class of entrepreneurs is a must for the economic and industrial development of the country.
To some extent, entrepreneurs are born but not totally. Those who have decided to become
entrepreneurs must have a basic understanding, visionary power, sense of value, risk-taking
capacity, innovative nature, etc. as basic qualities. But nowadays one can be developed as per
his/her requirement. They can be motivated and developed to undertake entrepreneurial
activities. Someone has rightly said that "Self-development is the best development”. There are
so many means, facilities, supportive institutions, tools, etc. that can be used to motivate and
develop entrepreneurs. To create an idea for business, to develop and assess the idea accordingly,
to collect the information of idea, to start the business, to organise and manage it and to make
decisions for all these and to bear risk and to remain creative and innovative, etc. are the
functions/ activities of the present day entrepreneurs. To do all these one has to develop the so-
called person. ED is an organized and systematic development. It is a tool of industrialization
and a solution to the unemployment problem for any country. The objective of entrepreneurial
development is to motivate a person for an entrepreneurial career and to make him capable of
perceiving and exploiting successfully opportunities for business enterprises. One trained
entrepreneur can guide others on how to start their own business and approach various
institutions for help, assistance, and counseling related to business functions. Trained
entrepreneurs become catalysts of developing industry and economic growth and progress.
It provides proper education, training and orientation to the entrepreneurs. This programme aims
to sharpen the knowledge , vision , planning , organization , coordination and dynamism of the
entrepreneurs. This programme is mainly designed to prepare the young entrepreneurs to
strengthen their entire motive and skill to give a good command over their jobs.
EDP has been also recognized as an effective HRD tool. An EDP is a training-cum-counselling
programme. It takes care of all the constraints and therefore it is proved to be one of the most
effective tools for developing new entrepreneurs. In a global business a layman can’t become an
effective entrepreneur and run a business. He must be with a specific vision and mission.
Following are critical constraints which prevent potential entrepreneur whether men or women
from becoming actual entrepreneurs.
EDP’s play an important role in the economic and industrial development of any country
whether developed or developing. It is a comprehensive and effective human resource
development programme which helps in developing analytical ability, outlook, and
farsightedness, increasing the motivation, knowledge and skill and last but not the least gives
confidence to face and solve variety of problem boldly.
1. Employment opportunities EDP’s motivate people to establish their own business and make
them capable of self employment. This not only provides employment to new entrepreneurs but
they also create employment opportunities for others. In India also many welfare and
development programmes have been started. Prominent among these programmes are
Pradhanmantri Rojgar Yojna, Jawahar Rojgar Yojna, Rashtriya Gramin Rojgar Yojna etc.
2. Formation of capital EDP’s help in capital formation which is very necessary for economic
development of the country. An entrepreneur uses his financial resources for the establishment
and development of the enterprise. He brings mobility in the savings of the people. In this
direction many financial institutions like ICICI, IDBI, SIDBI etc. also provide financial
assistance which further help in growth and formation of capital.
4. Balanced Regional Growth Developing nations face problems of unbalanced regional growth.
On one hand there are states like Punjab, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, etc., where economic progress
is very fast, on the other hand states like Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa etc. which are far behind as
far as economic growth is concerned. EDP’s help to establish small scale units in such areas
thereby stop centralization of capital. Various state governments also give several concessions
and subsidies which help in balanced regional growth in the country.
