This formation should consolidate and deepen the knowledge and skills acquired during the basic theological studies. The self-educational work will start from the biblical study, because the acquaintance with the contents of individual books of Holy Scripture is the most important for a catechist. This study will be accompanied by reading biblical commentaries, and during further stages also monographs and scientific papers. Then a catechist will develop a mastery in interpretation of individual pericopes for catechetical purposes. The present paper concerns the problem of catechists' formation regarding Holy Scripture, as well as discusses two forms of guided self-education: individual guided self-education and guided self-education in small groups. Both forms can be useful in the course of basic theological studies as well as during the postgraduate studies improving catechists' proficiency.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/formacjaformacja biblijnakatechezakatechecikatechizacjaedukacjakształceniesamokształcenienaukaformationbiblical formationcatechesiscatechistseducationself-educationstudyArticle
