Pogodbenika v skladu z nameni tega protokola razvijata medsebojno sodelovanje na področju osnovnega, srednjega, višjega in visokega šolstva ter zaradi tega podpirata neposredno sodelovanje in stike med izobraževalnimi zavodi ter univerzami in drugimi visokošolskimi zavodi.

Učenci, državljani države enega od pogodbenikov, ki živijo na ozemlju države drugega pogodbenika, imajo pravico obiskovati osnovno šolo in se pripravljati na osnovno šolo pod enakimi pogoji kot državljani države, na ozemlju katere živijo. Pogodbenika soglašata, da se njuni državljani v državi drugega pogodbenika vpisujejo v srednješolsko in terciarno izobraževanje pod enakimi pogoji, ki veljajo za državljane tega pogodbenika. Pogodbenika soglašata, da se za študente, državljane drugega pogodbenika, glede plačila šolnine za terciarno izobraževanje uporabljajo enaka merila, kot veljajo za domače študente. Glede študija in urejanja drugih zadev v zavodih, ki izvajajo terciarno izobraževanje, se uporabljajo načela visokošolske avtonomije. Pogodbenika podpirata uvedbo skupnih podiplomskih študijev med zainteresiranimi visokošolskimi zavodi na področjih, ki so obojestransko zanimiva. Zagotovita vso potrebno pomoč za izpolnitev potrebnih pogojev za začetek skupnih študijev v skladu s svojo notranjo zakonodajo.

Pogodbenika si letno izmenjata do osemnajst

(18)mesečnih štipendij za študijsko izpopolnjevanje na visokošolskih zavodih v posamičnem trajanju 3 do 6 mesecev za kandidate do starosti 26 let. Štipendisti imajo zagotovljeno bivanje in druge subvencije ter mesečno štipendijo v znesku, ki je v skladu z notranjo zakonodajo vsakega pogodbenika. O strukturi in višini štipendij ter drugih pogojih se pogodbenika obveščata letno. Obveznosti, predvidene s tem protokolom, na strani Bosne in Hercegovine izvajajo pristojne izobraževalne oblasti v entitetah, kantonih in Okrožju Brčko.

Pogodbenika soglašata, da najpozneje do konca junija vsako leto obvestita drugega pogodbenika o številu študentov, državljanov države drugega pogodbenika, ki so se vpisali v preteklem študijskem letu.

Pogodbenika krepita medsebojno sodelovanje na področju izobraževanja zlasti zaradi izmenjave izkušenj pri reformi izobraževalnega sistema kot dela procesa stabilizacije in pridruževanja Evropski uniji ter s tem namenom neposredno ali v okviru večstranskih programov sodelujeta pri različnih projektih, ki so obojestransko zanimivi. Pogodbenika še posebej podpirata medsebojno sodelovanje na področju visokega šolstva v okviru večstranskih programov Evropske unije in regionalnega programa CEEPUS.

Pogodbenika spodbujata neposredno sodelovanje tudi drugih zainteresiranih organizacij in posameznikov na področju visokega šolstva.

Pogodbenika medsebojno spodbujata ter omogočata študij in poučevanje slovenskega in uradnih jezikov Bosne in Hercegovine in književnosti v obeh pogodbenikih. Pogodbenika podpirata razvoj in napredek učenja maternega jezika in kulture za otroke in mladino, pripadnike slovenske skupnosti v Bosni in Hercegovini in pripadnike bosansko-hercegovske skupnosti v Republiki Sloveniji.

Na področju športa in mladine pogodbenika pozdravljata zlasti neposredne stike med športnimi in mladinskimi organizacijami obeh držav. Priporočata izmenjavo informacij in dokumentacije.

Zaradi spremljanja izvajanja protokola sta pogodbenika sklenila ustanoviti mešano komisijo, sestavljeno iz enakega števila predstavnikov obeh pogodbenikov. Sestanki mešane komisije potekajo po potrebi na zaprosilo enega od pogodbenikov, in sicer izmenoma v Republiki Sloveniji in Bosni in Hercegovini.

Vse oblike sodelovanja potekajo v skladu z notranjo zakonodajo pogodbenikov.

Pogodbenika lahko kadar koli predlagata spremembe tega protokola. Taki predlogi sprememb se po diplomatski poti sporočajo drugemu pogodbeniku. Spremembe začnejo veljati s prejemom pisnega soglasja drugega pogodbenika po diplomatski poti k predlaganim spremembam.

Pogodbenika vsa morebitna druga odprta vprašanja, ki so v njuni pristojnosti, urejata sporazumno po diplomatski poti.

Protokol se začasno uporablja z dnem podpisa. Veljati začne z dnem prejema zadnjega uradnega obvestila po diplomatski poti o izpolnitvi vseh pogojev, določenih z notranjo zakonodajo pogodbenikov za začetek veljavnosti tega protokola. Protokol se sklene za pet študijskih let 2013/14, 2014/15, 2015/16, 2016/17 in 2017/18. Protokol se lahko podaljša, vendar največ do konca študijskega leta, v katerem bo Bosna in Hercegovina postala polnopravna članica Evropske unije. Prenehanje tega protokola ne vpliva na programe in projekte, ki so bili začeti po tem protokolu, tako da se ti nadaljujejo do dokončanja, razen če ni dogovorjeno drugače. Morebitne spore glede razlage ali izvajanja tega protokola, pogodbenika rešujeta sporazumno. V potrditev tega sta podpisana, ki sta bila pravilno pooblaščena, podpisala ta protokol.
