Summary/Abstract: Education is one of the most important factors in the resocialization of convicted persons and an integral part of institutional re-educational treatment. However, the low level of education of convicted persons, their lack of interest in completing their education or retraining make resocialization difficult. Education, as one of the important segments of re-educational treatment, is neglected in most penal and correctional institutions. The reason for this situation is also a reflection of the situation in society and the crisis of the value system. In this paper, we will present the structure of the level of education of convicted persons in penal and correctional institutions in the Republic of Srpska, and show how informal learning during the serving of a prison sentence can influence the educational process to be improved within the framework of re-educational treatment and effectively affect the entire process of their resocialization.
