Home Screen and Top Navigation
SELMA’s layout is streamlined and easy to navigate. When you log into your SELMA account, the homepage displays a dashboard as demonstrated on the image below.
The left side of this screen provides insights into key performance indicators, while the right side displays cards that allow dynamic interaction with what SELMA calls “Events”.
The top navigation tabs have been designed to resemble the order in which you will interact with SELMA. They have also been structured in a way that ensures that each section is set up correctly in order for the next to become accessible/functional.

Main Dashboard
This is SELMA’s main (standard) dashboard which displays key performance indicators specific to your education provider.
In the May 2023 release, the SELMA dashboard was updated to notify users when students have uploaded assignments for marking via Student Portal and Admissions received via the Online Admission Forms (applicable to those clients who subscribe to these services).
Tutor Dashboard
Tutors have access to a streamlined version of SELMA, specifically designed to focus on essential daily functions that are relevant to teaching staff.
By eliminating administrative complexities and highlighting classroom-focused features, this version enables educators to efficiently manage their teaching responsibilities without navigating through unnecessary functions intended for administrative personnel.
