MSMEs that operate in clusters share locations, products, and markets, yet they rarely learn from one another in a structured way, so managerial practices remain informal and uneven. This self-funded one-day community service program, carried out in December 2025, applied the Energizing Organizational Learning Process (EOLP) to strengthen the learning capacity and managerial capability of approximately 25 MSMEs from various sectors in Banyumas Regency, in partnership with ASPIKMAS (Banyumas Micro, Small and Medium Entrepreneurs Association) and the Paguyuban Pelaku Usaha Kabupaten Banyumas (Banyumas Regency Business Owners' Association). EOLP is an interactive learning mode built on three practices: goal-oriented learning, update-oriented interaction, and intra-team learning exchange. Activities consisted of leadership commitment building, goal-setting sessions, inter-MSME learning forums, and peer exchange between members, followed by joint reflection. The program produced shared learning goals, a cluster learning forum, and peer-learning pairs. The main lesson was that forums worked best when led by MSME owners. Systematic before–after measurement and a monitoring tool are needed in follow-up programs.
