How to Create a Pulse From a Template

Updated on

In addition to creating your own Pulses, you have the option to utilize Kelvin certified, pre-populated surveys known as templates. Some of these templates cover topics such as Back to School, End of Year, Holiday Check-ins, and specifically for California residents, LCAP family, student, and staff surveys.

Note:  In order to create family, staff, and student pulses, it is essential to have the permission to Create a Pulse. If you do not possess this authorization, please contact the Kelvin System Administrator of your site.
