IECD has been running the MSE Support Program in HCMC since 2013, bringing basic management tools to entrepreneurs who want to structure their business and thus better manage their source of income. Through these trainings, small entrepreneurs will acquire basic management skills such as: using a cashbook, calculating selling price, optimizing savings, developing customer relationships, etc. During and after the training program, trainers will visit the beneficiaries at their workplace to make sure the skills and tools introduced are well applied and adapted to the beneficiaries’ specific professional context.
