For district leaders and student services

The workforce data
your special education
team has never had.

PULSE calculates the true workload carried by every provider on your team, against the terms of their collective bargaining agreement. It gives you the staffing evidence you need before the budget conversation, not after.

Three interconnected capabilities

Schedule. Workload. Workforce.
In one place.

01 · Schedule

Build the schedule. Detect every conflict.

Service schedules built from IEP requirements and CBA constraints. Cross-provider conflict detection across all buildings.

02 · Workload

See who is overloaded. Before they leave.

Real utilization rates against your contract, not estimates. Sustainability bands in green, amber, and red for every provider on your team.

03 · Workforce

District-wide data. Actionable answers.

FTE gap analysis across buildings. Budget narrative support for every staffing decision. Director-ready data before the board meeting.

Built for your whole team

Every provider on your special education team. One system.

PULSE models the disciplines every district staffs, and the ones most systems ignore.

Workload, not caseload. PULSE counts every hour of professional time, not student headcount, following the workload approach ASHA and AOTA have long advocated. The sustainability target is set by the district, defaulting to 85 percent of available time so a schedule has room to absorb the unplanned. Where a state sets a statutory ratio, PULSE applies that statute and names it.

The ecosystem

Connected to the Trust Curriculum.

PULSE and the Trust Curriculum are built for the same building. PULSE measures whether the work is sustainable. The Trust Curriculum gives practitioners the shared language to do it. Both rest on the Trust Framework.
