| Summary, etc. |
Entrepreneurship as a driver and pillar of a country's economy improves the<br/>quality of life of the people. It is an alternative for financial independence and self-<br/>sustainability. With this, it has become a prominent goal in response to the current<br/>economic challenges and to reduce poverty. Central to the success of starting an<br/>entrepreneurial activity is the competency and readiness of an individual as it allows<br/>them to perform and sustain various tasks related to it. To effectively and efficiently lead<br/>an entrepreneurial activity, one should be competent and ready. To date, enterprise<br/>development in the country is beset with challenges like the ease of starting a business<br/>particularly communities in the rural areas.<br/>The current study aimed to assess the level of entrepreneurial competencies and<br/>extent of entrepreneurial readiness of the extension and community service beneficiaries<br/>of a state university in Negros Occidental. Also, it seeks to find out whether a significant<br/>relationship exists between these two variables. A researcher-made questionnaire was<br/>employed to generate the data and administered to 179 beneficiaries of the training<br/>conducted by the institution. Gathered data were analyzed using descriptive-comparative<br/>and correlational research design. To realize the descriptive objectives, frequency,<br/>percentage, mean, and standard deviation were employed. Meanwhile, a test of<br/>normality was done and the statistical tools without the assumption of normality such as<br/>Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis were employed in the analysis of data involving<br/>inferential statistics. Furthermore, a Spearman Rank Correlation was used to determine<br/>the significant relationship between entrepreneurial competencies and readiness.<br/>The findings of the study revealed that, in general, the level of entrepreneurial<br/>competencies of the ECS beneficiaries was moderate. Of the three (3) indicators,<br/>knowledge and skills rated moderate only. Meanwhile, the extent of entrepreneurial<br/>readiness rated high, that is evident of the consistency in the high ratings of both the<br/>motivation and intention to engage in entrepreneurship. Significant findings can be seen<br/>in profile characteristics such as educational attainment, and entrepreneurial training.<br/>Respondents who have higher educational level and have undergone entrepreneurial<br/>training are competent and ready for an entrepreneurial activity as compared to others.<br/>Likewise, the result revealed that a relationship exists between the entrepreneurial<br/>competencies and readiness. Accordingly, the result is indicative that entrepreneurial<br/>competency is associated with entrepreneurial readiness leading to entrepreneurial<br/>engagement. It highlighted the role of competency to the readiness of becoming an entrepreneur.<br/>In the quest of improving the community's general well-being to become self-<br/>sufficient and self-reliant, the study offers direct evidence that necessitates inclusion of<br/>appropriate business education and entrepreneurial training in the existing program of the<br/>ECS unit. It suggests that education and entrepreneurial training have a valuable effect<br/>on the competency and readiness of the beneficiaries. Those who have higher<br/>educational attainment and have undergone entrepreneurial training were found to be<br/>entrepreneurially competent and ready. Training on transferred technology is only one<br/>aspect and there is a need to improve the economic advancement of the beneficiaries<br/>from the lens of an entrepreneur to make the outcome more fitted in the business context.<br/>Hence, the findings of the study provided baseline information in designing<br/>entrepreneurship development plan that can be integrated to the existing program of the<br/>extension and community service unit ofthe institution. |
