Abstract

In today’s world, security issues are an imperative and integral part of the public policies of the modern state and society. As a result of this reality, the profile and role of the Members of Parliament (MPs) in the legislature are constantly evolving. As the MPs have the authority to participate in decisions that directly impact citizen’s rights, freedoms, and obligations it is essential for them to possess knowledge in security, defense, intelligence, terrorism, cyber attacks and geopolitical challenges, in order to qualitatively perceive all aspects of specific issues, when making decisions in this domain. Therefore, although there are many factors that influence the MP's decisions, an additional dilemma arises: whether formal education, previous work experience or involvement in security-related organizations would imply added value to the MP's role in the adoption process of more quality decisions in the field of security?
This paper aims to compare the constitutional and legal position of the MPs in the Assembly of the Republic of North Macedonia and three member states of the European Union (Republic of Croatia, Republic of Slovenia, and Republic of Italy) of concerning their professional education and its impact on making quality decisions, especially in security matters.
The normative method, the comparative method and the method of content analysis, will be used to achieve this goal.

Keywords: MPs, security, vocational education, formal education.
