Office of Veterans Business Development: Formative Evaluation of the Boots to Business Program

The Boots to Business (B2B) Program Two-Day Introduction to Entrepreneurship Training Workshop (B2B 2-day workshop), one component of SBA’s Boots to Business program, is the focus of this formative evaluation. The purpose of this formative evaluation is to: 1) identify ways to improve participation of transitioning service members and their spouses in the B2B 2-day workshop, and 2) to evaluate the strengths and limitations of the course quality assessment surveys currently used to appraise the workshop curriculum. Findings pertain to areas germane to program planning and course quality improvement activities.
