In this paper, I consider three basic questions: Who gets enterprise training or work experience in small businesses, does this make a difference to future entrepreneurial activity and does this improve business outcomes? Thus, the first strand of my investigation considers what types of people get access to enterprise training or gain experience of working in smaller businesses. The second strand of investigation explicitly questions whether exposure to enterprise training or work experience in smaller businesses has an identifiable impact on the labour market choices that people make subsequently. The final strand questions whether it can make a difference in terms of identifiable business outcomes.
