The training program was carried out offline for 2 days from 15-16 March 2021 at the Sukajadi District Hall, Bandung City. The participants who attended the training were 18 people with disabilities, consisting of 9 people with physical disabilities, 7 people who were blind and 2 people who were deaf. The training materials consist of business motivation, business plans, sources of venture capital and the preparation of simple financial reports.
