Summary/Abstract: The objective of the paper is to analyze the current situation of the non-formal education as a tool for resocialization and better employment of migrants with a comparative overview of practices in the Kingdom of Sweden in which non-formal education has a long tradition, and its impact on the youth population.One of the main topics of the discussions today is the role of formal education in the process of the development of the society. In the new millennium in many countries the question is how much classical formal education system can respond to accelerating technological and socioeconomic changes in society. It is evident that in the modern society, there are emerging institutions and organizations that offer various educational activities that can be seen as, substitution, competition, opposition or dulcification of the formal education process. These educational activities are known as non-formal education, as an integral part of the concept of lifelong learning, which enables young people and adults to acquire skills, competencies and attitudes to adapt to the environment subject to constant changes. The acquisition of these skills, competencies and attitudes needed is the willingness of the individual to show interest in participating in this type of training outside of the realm of the formal education system. Finally, non-formal education is only added value to the development of the individual, but no doubt has an effect on the community level. Moreover, non-formal education contributes to establishing and identifying the need of those skills or competencies that are important to the labor market.
