+# Callbacks
+
+Callbacks are objects that can customize the behavior of the training loop in the PyTorch
+[`Trainer`] that can inspect the training loop state (for progress reporting, logging on TensorBoard or other ML
+platforms...) and take decisions (like early stopping).
+
+Callbacks are "read only" pieces of code, apart from the [`TrainerControl`] object they return, they
+cannot change anything in the training loop. For customizations that require changes in the training loop, you should
+subclass [`Trainer`] and override the methods you need (see [trainer](trainer) for examples).
+
+By default, `TrainingArguments.report_to` is set to `"none"`.
+
+The main class that implements callbacks is [`TrainerCallback`]. It gets the
+[`TrainingArguments`] used to instantiate the [`Trainer`], can access that
+Trainer's internal state via [`TrainerState`], and can take some actions on the training loop via
+[`TrainerControl`].
+
+## Available Callbacks

+## TrainerCallback
+
+[[autodoc]] TrainerCallback
+
+Here is an example of how to register a custom callback with the PyTorch [`Trainer`]:
+
+```python
+class MyCallback(TrainerCallback):
+    "A callback that prints a message at the beginning of training"
+
+    def on_train_begin(self, args, state, control, **kwargs):
+        print("Starting training")
+
+
+trainer = Trainer(
+    model,
+    args,
+    train_dataset=train_dataset,
+    eval_dataset=eval_dataset,
+    callbacks=[MyCallback],  # We can either pass the callback class this way or an instance of it (MyCallback())
+)
+```
+
+Another way to register a callback is to call `trainer.add_callback()` as follows:
+
+```python
+trainer = Trainer(...)
+trainer.add_callback(MyCallback)
+# Alternatively, we can pass an instance of the callback class
+trainer.add_callback(MyCallback())
+```
+

+
+## TrainerControl
+
