The study is devoted to the analysis of the implementation of the "lifelong learning" concept in Russia. To study the problem, we used both secondary data from surveys conducted by the VTsIOM and HSE University, as well as information obtained by the authors during expert interviews with teachers of higher education, tutors of business education and scholars involved in educational issues. The logic of the study involved a consistent acquaintance with the concept of lifelong education, the presentation of the structure of modern Russian education, and the inclusion of various groups of the population in the lifelong education system. A key part of the study was an analysis of the barriers and opportunities for the population to pursue lifelong learning. The results of the polls and the data of expert interviews allowed us to identify systemic problems in implementing this concept, such as: the transitional state of the educational system, insufficient budget funding for education, low financial power of population, insufficient demand from employers, an unformed system of additional professional education, underdevelopment of support for informal education and its pairing with formal education. The role of the National project “Education” in solving the problems of implementing the concept of lifelong education is noted.
