Lifelong learning has an essential place in every aspect of our lives. Lifelong learning refers to individualized learning based on individuals' personal and professional interests at times of need. This research aims to reveal the relationship between lifelong learning and media based on the opinions of pre-service teachers. The research data was obtained from Turkish, Social Studies, Preschool, and Classroom Teaching students (N:246) attending Uşak University Faculty of Education. To reveal the relationships of the pre-services teachers in the study group with lifelong learning and the media, the data were collected with the "Lifelong Learning (LLL) and Media" form, which the researcher prepared, and expert opinion was taken. The data obtained were analyzed by content analysis. As a result of the analysis, 13 themes were obtained because of the opinions of the pre-services teachers. As a result, pre-service teachers expressed the relationship between lifelong learning and media from different perspectives and revealed a clear pattern between media and lifelong learning. Pre-service teachers stated that "contribution to lifelong learning by using media as a teaching tool" (f:38) and "contribution to lifelong learning by increasing accessibility to accurate information" (f:34) were made. They also put forward opinions covering these themes, stating that "the media as a whole contributes to lifelong learning" (f:33) and "the media contributes to lifelong learning due to its contribution to vocational education" (f:32). The idea that media can make a significant contribution to the lifelong learning process emerges clearly in the research.
