The curricular implementation of entrepreneurship education in schoolshas been occurring gradually. Some programs represent this interest in
the promotion of entrepreneurial culture, such as EME, EJE and ÍCARO.
The success of this education depends on personal factors, in addition
to certain external factors, which make up the enterprise potential of a
subject. Our research aims to describe the effect on the enterprise potential of a project consisting of the three programs mentioned, as well as to understand the processes involved from the perspective of the teachers taking part. We conducted a study of ex post-facto cases via longitudinal descriptive research. The design is mixed and exploratory, the primary method being qualitative and the secondary quantitative. The results of the quantitative technique are used as an input to enhance the qualitative technique. The students and teachers have been selected through purposive sampling. Quantitatively, the instrument used was the ATE Test; and in the qualitative dimension, we have used in-depth interviews. To evaluate the effect of the project, we used an analysis of variance via repeated measures of a 2 x 2 factorial design. The collected data were analyzed using a mixed ANOVA through the statistical program SPPS version 20. To process the information obtained from the interviews, we performed a semiotic and narrative analysis. The effect of the programs on enterprise potential has been virtually non-existent. The participatory frequency has not had an appreciable effect. The analysis and discussion of the information obtained seems to indicate that the implementation of the programs that must be carried out will include relevant and successful personal factors relating to the development of the enterprise potential.
