Abstract	Lifelong education is one of the leading principles of Peru's Educational Reform, part of the general post-revolutionary transformation of Peruvian society. The idea that state obligation to the child begins with the school age has been done away with. The three levels of Peruvian education are divided into modalities to allow for special attention to individual problems; the modalities are basic vocational education, out-of-school higher education, special education, special vocational qualification and educational extension. The country is now in the process of social mobilization, one of the components of which is community participation in the administration of lifelong education. The educational nuclearization system has established social units grouping two to four thousand inhabitants. The purpose is to mobilize the community to utilize their resources to develop lifelong education. The new plan for adult education ranges from literacy education to vocational and technological training. Vocational education is aimed both to prepare workers for jobs and to provide on-the-job training in technological advances. The National Service for Training and Industrial Work (SENATI) was established to improve the deficient qualifications of personnel in industries. A certificates system and coordination of out-of-school education are currently being studied. Educational extension consists of discussion groups and circles created by community groups. (KM)
