Assignments

Assign specific training modules to individual users, teams, or your entire organization. Track completion, set deadlines, and enforce mandatory training.

Creating an Assignment

To create a new assignment, navigate to Assignments in the admin sidebar and click "New Assignment". Follow these steps:

1. Content Area

Choose Practice (code review challenges) or Learn (interactive attack scenarios).

2. Target

Select what to assign. The target hierarchy depends on the content area:

  • Practice: Category → Module → Topic (e.g. "OWASP Web Top 10 > A03 Injection > SQL Injection")
  • Learn: Course → Scenario

3. Assignee

Choose who receives the assignment: an Individual user, a Team, or the Entire Organization.

4. Deadline

Set an optional due date. Users will see overdue assignments highlighted in their dashboard.

5. Mandatory

Flag the assignment as required or optional. Mandatory assignments appear prominently in the user's training queue.

6. Note

Add an optional description or context for the assignment (e.g. "Complete before the Q2 security audit").

Editing & Deactivating

You can edit an assignment's deadline, note, and mandatory flag at any time. Changes apply immediately to all assignees.

To remove an assignment without losing data, use Deactivate. Deactivating soft-deletes the assignment — it retains all progress data but hides the assignment from users' dashboards. Deactivated assignments can be reactivated later.

Tip: Assigning to a Team automatically includes future members. See Teams for details on team management.
