# Tracking Attendance and Participant Progress
The E-register gives you a full view of what is happening in every course — you can see who attended, what instructors recorded as lesson topics or homework, what grades they gave, and how they described participant progress. You can also fill in any of this information yourself if needed.
You'll find it in the course details, in the *E-register* tab.
## Checking attendance
Open the group course and go to the *E-register* tab. In the *Lessons history* section, toggle the slider next to participants who were absent on a given day.
## Grades
In the ***Grades*** section of the ***E-register*** tab you can see all grades entered by instructors, grouped by comment (for example, *Quiz*). Use the filter to quickly find grades with a specific comment.
To add a new grade, click ***New grade*** directly in the ***Grades*** section — select the participant and fill in the value. **Participants receive a notification** and can see their grades in the Client Panel.
Click a participant's name to view all their grades — from there you can **edit** or **delete** them.
To navigate to a participant's profile, click their name in the ***Course history*** table.
{% hint style="info" %}
The E-register supports two types of grades: **non-descriptive grades** (numeric or letter grades) and **descriptive grades** (short text notes about a participant's progress). Both are visible to the participant in the Client Panel.
{% endhint %}
## Giving receptionist access to the E-register
Go to *Settings* → *Users*, click *Edit* next to the receptionist, and grant them:
* **View E-register** — access to the *E-register* tab in course details
* **Modify E-register** — ability to also enter grades
