# Training Request Approval Action

The system allows creating an **Attendee List** with or without **Waiting List**.

Follow these steps to set up the training request approval action:

1. Go to **Settings > Settings and Configuration > Learning**.
2. Click **Classroom Training** in the left panel and select whichever option is needed from the **Training Request Approval Action** drop-down list on the **Basic** tab. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/c315c68d-2799-4fcc-9a39-084315b58f14/Images/Documentation/img447.png)
3. The available options are:
  - **Approve Only** – when the manager or HR approves a training request, the employee will be added to the waiting list of the training event selected by the employee when sending a request. Development activity will not be created.
  - **Create Activity** – when a training request is approved, a development activity is created and the employee is added to the attendees list without being added to the waiting list.  
*Note*If an employee didn't select a training activity when sending a request, but requested a new training date, he or she will have to be manually registered for the training event by HR/Manager, irrespective of the Training Request Approval Action setting.
4. Click the **Apply Changes** button for the changes to apply.

By default, the action is **Approve Only**, meaning that the employee is added to the waiting list after the approval, but the development activity is not created.
