Abstract
Abstract This study sought to assess the implementation fidelity of the Youth Entrepreneurship Program of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI-YEP) in Baguio City. The researcher utilized the descriptive survey and correlation procedures with the survey questionnaires as the main data-gathering instrument. The sources of data were fifteen (15) mentee graduates from the first class in 2022 and the second cohort in 2023 and another thirty (30) who are currently mentees of the program. Appropriate statistical treatment such as Percentage, Weighted Mean, and Chi–square Test and Cross Tabulation was used to analyze the data. This study investigated the profile of the mentees, status of implementation fidelity of the DTI-YEP, the significant relationship of implementation fidelity when grouped according to demographic factors, level of effectiveness of implementation fidelity and problems encountered. Based on the findings, the mentees’ perceived implementation fidelity of the DTI-YEP as Fully Implemented which means that all program areas were extensive, and objectives were all met. Based on the statistical data, there is no significant relationship between demographic factors and level of implementation fidelity of the DTI-YEP. All mentees utilized the same modules for subject identification. Regarding the knowledge and training experience that each mentee will acquire, they are all equal. The mentees’ perceived level of effectiveness of implementation fidelity of the DTI-YEP as Strongly Agree. The problems encountered was Not a serious problem. This means that the problem is not on the transfer of knowledge by the mentors but on the entrepreneurial intentions of the mentee. As for the recommendation, the Implementation Fidelity Framework approach may be used by the DTI-YEP for appropriate program monitoring and evaluation. Given that young people are clearly interested in the entrepreneurship program, recruitment efforts should be stepped up to include a greater number of entrepreneurial-driven individuals. The DTI-YEP continue to invite for academic partners to provide the mentees with outcome-based knowledge of the theories and ideas. It is important to use ongoing observation and assessment of how entrepreneurial skills are applied to real-world business operations. The researcher recommends the sustainability plan to maintain and enhance the existing entrepreneurship program of DTI-YEP.
