How do you read this sentence?

A natural reading is:

はいぞく の まえ に けんしゅう を じゅこうする こと に なって います。

Without the learning spaces, it is normally written as:

配属の前に研修を受講することになっています。

A rough breakdown of the readings:

• 配属 = はいぞく
• 前 = まえ
• 研修 = けんしゅう
• 受講する = じゅこうする
• ことになっています = ことになっています

What does 配属 mean here, and why is it not 配属する?

配属 here is being used as a noun, meaning something like assignment/placement/posting.

So:

• 配属の前 = before assignment / before being assigned

Japanese often uses a Sino-Japanese verbal noun like 配属 as a noun directly, without する, especially in formal or business language.

You could also say:

• 配属する前に

That would mean before being assigned and is also grammatical. But 配属の前に sounds a bit more like before the assignment/placement, treating the event as a noun. This style is very common in formal company language.

Why is there a の in 配属の前?
