This study proposes the analysis of the comprehensive education proposal of Adventist institutions of higher education from the construction of a scale to measure participation in educational and entrepreneurship models based on physical, intellectual, spiritual dimensions, social, manual work, canvassing, voluntary service, and personal endeavors. The validation process was carried out with a sample of 345 students, of whom 44.1% are seniors’ students and 55.9% are graduates of the last 10 years of the University of Montemorelos. The results show that the scale was made up of 31 items grouped in eight factors explaining 62.7% of the total variance, with a KMO of .878 and a Cronbach's alpha of .875 were obtained. The structural equation model shows acceptable goodness-of-fit indices for the educational model and the entrepreneurship model ((2 = 25.263, p = .089, CFI = .988, TLI = .980, NFI = .964, RMSEA = 0.38).

Keywords : educational model; entrepreneurship model; integral education; construct validity; structural equations.
