Using MyGo1? If you're still on our legacy platform, see Assigning and Managing learning (MyGo1)
You can assign specific learning - one piece of content or many - to individuals or groups in your organization. Assignments help you track completion and set clear expectations for required learning.

Your role determines who you can assign learning to
Managers can assign learning to their direct reports for immediate team training needs or performance-related development.
Content Admins and Administrators can assign learning to anyone in the organization for compliance training, onboarding programs, or company-wide learning initiatives.
Assignment types
Go1 Learn offers three assignment types to make managing your training easy:
Fixed due date
Set a specific date when learning should be completed. Use this for compliance training or time-bound initiatives.Rolling due date
Set a completion timeframe based on when the assignment is created (for example, 30 days after assignment). Use this for ongoing programs where learners join at different times, to ensure all learners have the same amount of time to complete it.No due date
Assign learning without a due date. Use this for professional development or optional skill-building where learners manage their own timeline.
Creating assignments
Assignments work from a single, streamlined workflow, whether you're assigning one piece of content to one learner, or to your entire organization. Content can be assigned individually, or in bulk. You will find the assign option in Search, when viewing content and in your list of Content created by your organization.
When you start the assignment flow, you'll choose your assignment type, select your recipients (individuals, groups, or both), and configure your timeline. You can assign up to 50 pieces of content and select as many recipients as needed in one assignment. You can follow a step-by-step guide here.
How assignments work with groups
When you assign learning to one or more groups, the assignment type you choose determines what happens when people join or leave that group:
Fixed due date assignments
New members added to the group after the assignment is created don't receive the assignment. This works well for time-based training or programs with specific cohorts - everyone starts and completes together.
Rolling and No due date assignments
New members added to the group automatically receive the assignment. Use rolling due dates when new team members need to complete training within a set timeframe. Use no due date when the content supports ongoing development without time pressure.
When someone leaves a group:
Any recurrence for that person stops
Completed learning remains in their history
In-progress learning stays accessible without a due date
Not-started learning is removed from their assigned learning
Repeat assignments automatically
Fixed due date and rolling due date assignments can repeat at regular intervals - annually, every 6 months, every 3 months (quarterly), monthly or on a custom schedule. Set an assignment to repeat when you want the same individuals or groups to complete the same content on a regular basis.
When you set up a recurring assignment, each instance appears separately in your Assignments page so you can see both the active instance and the next scheduled instance.
Schedule assignments in advance
Content can be assigned immediately or scheduled for a future date. Scheduling assignments in advance allows you to get organized early (for example, set up all your mandatory training for the quarter) without your learners being bombarded with many assignments at once.
Managing assignments
Scheduled and in progress assignments can be found on the Assignments page. Admins will see all assignments across the organization, while Managers will see just the assignments they have created.
From the Assignments page, you can:
cancel repeat instances or stop assigning to new group members
report on progress by learners or by content
view scheduled assignments before they have been sent to learners
