This Study examines the effect of Competency Based Training (CBT) and capital assistance on entrepreneurial intention, with entrepreneurial attitude as a mediating variable. The research focuses on participants of CBT programs at the Department of Transmigration and Manpower of Ogan Ilir Regency. A quantitative approach was employed using survey data from 150 respondents, analyzed through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicate that CBT significantly influences entrepreneurial attitude but does not directly affect entrepreneurial intention. Capital assistance has a direct significant effect on entrepreneurial intention but does not significantly influence entrepreneurial attitude. Entrepreneurial attitude significantly affects entrepreneurial intention and mediates the relationship between CBT and entrepreneurial intention. These results highlight the importance of psychological factors in strengthening the effectiveness of training programs in fostering entrepreneurship.
