# Assign Policies, Trainings, and Onboarding Actions

Use the **Assign** actions to map compliance tasks—such as security trainings, policy acknowledgements, and onboarding workflows—to individual staff or staff groups. Assignments can be automated based on group memberships or handled manually per user.

### 1. Assign Policies to Staff Groups

Ensure only relevant teams receive applicable policy acknowledgements.

#### To assign policies:

1. Navigate to **Policies > Create or Manage**.
2. When configuring a policy, go to the **Applies to** section.
3. Choose **Assign to specific groups**.
4. Select the staff groups (e.g. Engineering, Sales) the policy applies to.
5. Save and publish the policy.
