Abstract
This study examined the effects of two age groups of Mexican youths (18-25 years, n = 44, and 26-35 years, n = 48), within two types of entrepreneurial training programs (coached, n = 26 and laissez-faire, n = 66) on employability skills (communication, teamwork and organizing effectively). Participants completed a survey after participating in at least 1-year of entrepreneurial activity. A 2 X 2 ANOVA evaluated the effects of age group and entrepreneurial training on employability skills. The results showed that entrepreneurs from 26-35 years have higher communication and organizing skills than entrepreneurs from 18-25 years regardless of the training program. Additionally, young adult entrepreneurs (26-35), that participated in the coached training program increased their communication and teamwork skills. These findings support the recommendation of age appropriate training.© Journal of Entrepreneurship Education
