Abstract
This study, not only investigates the important role of lifelong learning in shaping young people’s knowledge and in maximizing their
potential, but also aims to shed light on the influencing factors of lifelong learning of young people in Vietnam. The author applied
STATA and SPSS to analyze quantitative data collected from questionnaires with 332 respondents aged between 19 years old and 24
years old. Based on a holistic review of literature, this study concludes that four driver factors affect young people’s lifelong learning
ability, comprising: organizational culture, motivation, human resource development, and domestic private type of enterprise. The results
emphasize the positivity of organizational culture, human resource development, and the nature of work, especially organizational culture
and human resource development, which are dominant reasons for young people to maintain lifelong learning. The relationship between
demographics and lifelong learning was tested and it indicated that male has a stronger interest in learning than female. The result of the
study also shows the impact of different types of business sectors on employees’ learning intentions. It points out that the domestic private
type of enterprise is the most effective factor that has a positive relationship with the lifelong learning of the individual
