<![CDATA[Youth entrepreneurial intention is an important issue in social and economic development because it is closely related to job creation, economic independence, and the strengthening of local productive capacity. This study aims to analyze the effect of the entrepreneurial learning environment on youth entrepreneurial intention in Cikeruh Village, Jatinangor District, Sumedang Regency. A quantitative survey was conducted involving 120 youth respondents. Data were collected using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using Second-Order Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS. The entrepreneurial learning environment was measured through mentoring access, business discussion, instructor support, and creative climate, while youth entrepreneurial intention was measured through business planning, readiness to start a business, entrepreneurial desire, and future entrepreneurial orientation. The results show that the entrepreneurial learning environment has a positive and significant effect on youth entrepreneurial intention, with a path coefficient of 0.795, T-statistic of 17.879, and P-value of 0.000. The R-square value of 0.632 indicates that the entrepreneurial learning environment explains 63.2% of the variance in youth entrepreneurial intention. These findings highlight the importance of mentoring access, business discussion, instructor support, and a creative learning climate in strengthening youth entrepreneurial intention. Therefore, developing a community-based entrepreneurial learning ecosystem is essential to support and encourage rural youth entrepreneurship.]]>
