The AssignQualification operation gives a Worker a
Qualification. AssignQualification does not require that the Worker
submit a Qualification request. It gives the Qualification directly to the Worker.
You can assign a Qualification to any Worker who has submitted one of your HITs in the past.
You can only assign a Qualification of a Qualification type that you created (using the CreateQualificationType operation).
Tip
AssignQualification does not affect any pending Qualification
requests for the Qualification by the Worker. If you assign a Qualification to a
Worker, then later grant a Qualification request made by the Worker, the granting of
the request may modify the Qualification score. To resolve a pending Qualification
request without affecting the Qualification the Worker already has, reject the
request with the
RejectQualificationRequest operation.
