Training/Development and Survival of Small Businesses in Port Harcourt

Author: 

Akpuruku Banton & Enyia Charles Daniel

Abstract

This study empirically examined the extent to which training and development creates business success among small businesses in Port Harcourt. 60 small formal and informal businesses were randomly selected in order to achieve full representation. Our findings showed that small business success can be related to factors such as training and development. The result of our partial correlation also showed that technology significantly moderates the relationship between training/development and business success. The study therefore recommends conscious effort by potential enterprises to train and re-train themselves before venturing into any form of business because having good knowledge on the business is also a sign of future success.

 Key words: Training, development, success, business, entrepreneur
