Managing your Groups

This article provides guidance on how to add, manage and delete your groups in Student & Staff Pulse.

If you are a Pulse Coordinator, you will find the Settings in the lefthand panel of the dashboard. This is where you can manage enrolments, scheduling, and question modes.

See below for an example of Pulse Coordinator view in the dashboard for a school that is using both Student and Staff Pulse. Schools that use one or the other will only see the program that they are using.

Deleting a group

1. Go to Settings and Enrolments.

3. Click on the bin icon by the side of the group.
4. Click on Confirm if you are happy to delete the group.

If there are staff and students in the group, the system will show you a summary of the impact of deleting the group. To make sure you do not unenroll users from Pulse, you will need to reassign each user from the group you're deleting to a different group first.
