# Managing Training Requests in the Local HR role

Depending on the training type, the employees can take up training by either by adding it directly to their development plan or by sending request for the training.

The following types of courses cannot be added to the development plan directly:

- Classroom training
- Online courses protected by the Request Required check box in their settings

After an employee sends a request, it is forwarded to the manager for approval. Training Managers, HRs or Local HRs are authorized to approve the requests on behalf of the managers.

After the manager, training manager, HR, or Local HR approves the online course protected by the **Request Required** check box, it is added to the employee's development plan and the employee can start working on it.

In case of the classroom training, after the request is approved, the employee is either automatically added as a participant for the training event or is to be [manually registered](/v1/docs/managing-training-requests-in-the-local-hr-role#register-an-employee-for-training-in-the-local-hr-role) for the training event. This depends on the [**Training Request Approval Action**](/v1/docs/training-request-approval-action) setting.

## Approve or reject a training request in the Local HR role
