...

1. Go to the Six Seconds Tools Intranet – https://tools.6seconds.org/ – and log in. Check that you have at least 500 credits for the smallest team size (your balance is in the top-right corner under your name. If needed, click "credits" to order more).

 

 

2. Click the TVS icon on the home page (or the VS tab at the top):

4. Fill in the project setup form:

...

 
You can add a field for a demographic comparison, such as "Years on the team" or "Work Location."

...



Next you will see the: Fixed Items

 
While it may appear that you can change these, you cannot do so yourself. If there is a need to customize one of these questions, for example, if a term just does not apply in your context, you can click the support button at the bottom of the page and ask the VS support desk to change it for you.

You can also add free text or drop down questions:

If you wish, you may delete a Free Item – but only before someone answers the questionnaire. If you hold your mouse over the item, the (Delete item) link appears:

To access private mode click on “Change mode”.
 

In the Private link method, you need to add participants. For a small number, type each person's first (given) name, then surname, and email – then click Add person:

 

After you have added people (manually or via upload) you will see the list of people in your project. In this example, you can see that no one has been invited (Invited column icons are all red). "Jack Sample" has completed the questionnaire (the icon in "Taken" is green – in this case, it was completed manually by clicking that "chain" icon). You can get any person's individual, unique link by clicking the "chain" icon in the Quest.access column:


 

You will have the opportunity to customize the system-generated email before it sends.
 

If you are using the system to send the invitation email (which is only available in the Private link option), you will see this form to customize the email – you can edit the subject, the start of the email, and the end of the email.
 

In the middle, the system will automatically create the unique URL for each participant (so you could send to 20 people at one time, and each would get his/her unique link).
