dc.description There is growing number of SMEs operating in Tanzania since 1990 to contribute economy in the country. The study aims to assess the role of government in supporting SMEs. Generally worldwide SMEs have great contribution to the economy of their countries. SMEs lack access to finance due to adequacy in fulfillment of Bankers requirements and also lack knowledge and skills. Therefore government of Tanzania knowing the significance of the SME they have the role to support alienate the gap of access to finance and lack of knowledge and skills. The review of related literature descries the development of SMEs, the role of SMEs for Tanzanians economy and the role of government in creating an enabling environment for the emergence of private sector participation in economic activities. Data collection was obtained through questionnaire, interviews and actual observation. These were supported with secondary data. Both quantitative and qualitative techniques were employed to analyze the data. The findings in this study have shown that there is no improvement in terms of an increase in capital, marketing and outreach. The main factors which affect growth of SMEs is due lack of training, lack of education and entrepreneurial skills. Accordingly it was recommended that the government should ensure that all Tanzanians posses SMEs education background by introducing the training in the Vocational education of Tanzania (VETA) curricula.
