# Getting Started for Coaches

If you do not yet have a Principles account, you will receive an invitation from **donotreply@principles.com**. Select **Setup my Account**, create a password, and sign in to the application.

If you already have a Principles Tools account, you can log in using your existing credentials at [**my.principles.com**](http://my.principles.com/). By default, you will only be able to view and/or manage clients that you are explicitly granted permission to (unless you are a Dashboard Manager). 

Upon sign-in, you will have access to the Coaching Dashboard and related features. 

If the point of contact for your team or company has identified an account that you’re using with your own team / within your coaching practice internally, this account will stay “as is” under “Switch Team.”
