# How do I assign a Training Path?

## Assign a Training Path to individual users, departments, or both.

### Overview

Training Paths can be assigned to individual users, entire departments, or a combination of both from the Training Paths Overview.

An optional completion date can also be added to the assignment for reporting purposes.

#### How to Assign a Training Path

1. Open **Training Paths**.
2. Select **Overview**.
3. Select **Assign Training** in the top-right corner.
4. Select an individual user, a department, or a combination of both.
5. Select the Training Path you want to assign.
6. Review the assignment details to make sure they are accurate.
7. Optionally set a completion date.
8. Select **Complete Assignment** to assign the training.

### Things to Know

- Selecting a department assigns the Training Path to the users in that department.
- Individual users and departments can be selected together.
- The completion date is used for reporting only.
- The completion date is not a hard deadline.
- A trainee can still complete the Training Path after the completion date has passed.

### Example

A manager could assign a new onboarding Training Path to an entire department and set a target completion date to track progress in reporting.
