This study deals with the learning process of a person who experienced experiences in a marginal organization, those who do not fit the business context.

It addresses the two central conceptual axes for conducting the research, which are transformative learning and experiences.

Thus, the study is characterized by a qualitative approach and exploratory nature through interpretive and comprehensive analysis of the accounts. To this end, the discussion of the results is structured in three dimensions: perspectives of meaning, domains of learning and types of reflection. So, we conclude that the experiences lived by former detainee demonstrates an inspiring transformations in their learning.
