India has prioritized the development and fostering of entrepreneurship across states. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic has shown a plunge in many home-based women entrepreneurs, a new trend that will continue to grow. Thus, the entrepreneurial training program is mushrooming by government and non-government institutions. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of one such training program. The study includes both existing and potential women entrepreneurs. Many studies highlighted the significance of the entrepreneurship training program, but it is also essential to investigate the effectiveness of such a program. Thus, the principal aim of this study was to measure the effectiveness of one such women’s entrepreneurial training program. The findings of this study measure the effectiveness of one of such training programs and provide a framework for future training programs. The training effectiveness was evaluated using Kirkpatrick’s 4-level training evaluation model. In this study, training effectiveness was measured at two levels. This empirical study recognizes the effectiveness and level of business skills acquired by the women trainees. The study also identifies the scope and areas for future research
