## Viewing and Managing Coachings

The **Coaching** dashboard provides an overview of all coaching instructions you’ve created. For each coaching, you can see:

* **Scenario:** The situation or trigger for the coaching (e.g., "Where the customer is inquiring about the pricing plan").
* **Assigned Agents:** Which agents will receive this coaching.
* **Status Toggle:** Enable or disable coaching as needed.

You can easily add, edit, or remove coaching instructions to keep your training up to date.
