Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

If you just want to parent an object to a joint, select the object and then the joint and press P. If you want to bind the skin of a model to all of the joints, select the skin, then the pelvis joint and then do either a smooth or rigid bind.

As far as I know you don't parent bones to the model - the bones are just a visual guide.
