You can also use the default keyboard shortcut Alt-Shift-Ctrl-K to access the keyboard shortcuts menu. That is a keyboard shortcut you probably don't need right there, unless you intend to be changing shortcuts often.

The keyboard shortcuts menu is pretty self-explanatory. The menus are listed as they appear in the top of the screen, and you can arrow through them and assign new shortcuts as needed:
