This study was conducted in Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kattupakkam in Kancheepuram district of Tamilnadu. Forty six poultry trainees, thirty six dairy farming trainees, and eighteen sheep/goat trainees (n=100) were selected by following the proportionate random sampling method. This study aims to estimate the effectiveness of the Krishi Vigyan Kendra training programme. The KVK training was perceived as most effective by the respondents as reflected from the perception score of 67.73. The respondents were satisfied with training out put, quality of teaching and physical facilities provided during the training. However, the respondents perceived that the coverage of topic was not sufficient. Majority of the respondents preferred institutional training as their choice instead of peripatetic training for a period of 3-5 days during April to June due to the availability of all facilities at Livestock Research Station, Kattupakkam
