Components are all the objects you want to attach to a programme later. A typical example is an approved course that you offer. It can also be an assessment or unit standard.

Create Components
To create a component, click on ‘Curriculum’ in the main menu and then ‘Add New Component’
You will be presented with the setup form for a component:
Start with filling in component details like code and title. If it is an approved course that goes into the SDR, use your approval document or STEO to match the information exactly.
| You may create any component you like whether it is reported through and SDR or not. Control what you are creating by selecting the correct Component Type and Return Type (NZ Compliance Section) |
In the ‘NZ Compliance’ section, add further details if your course is approved and needs this information. You will find most of the information in STEO, if your component is not relevant for an SDR you can leave this section blank.
When saving a component, SELMA will automatically highlight any compulsory fields that were not entered or any values that do not match the entry criteria:
