The aim of this study was to analyze lifelong learning (LLL) and its relationship with the educational approach of the personal learning environment (PLE). In the last year students do various degrees at a university in Costa Rica. METHOD. Using a non-experimental, transactional design, we applied a probabilistic questionnaire where the representative sample was (n=1187). RESULTS. The results show that the LLL scale used is a valid, and the tool used to explore the topic is reliable. In addition, we saw a moderate inclination towards lifelong learning in the students, mainly about all the application capability of new knowings and skills in practical surroundings, and how they relate to the new learning with previous acquisitions. DISCUSSION. It is observed a significant relationship among this training approach and personal learning environments, characterized by the use of the potential offered by technological tools. It has been found significant differences by gender, knowledge area, academic performance, and internet connection hours. Among the conclusions, it is pointed out that the universities must foster the linked competences with LLL to boost the PLE of the learners and propitiate its optimum social and professional insertion along their vital route
