The site is organized into modules and sub-modules. As illustrated in the screen below of the Insight Home page, authorized modules are displayed as tabs across the top (e.g. Agreements, Humans) with information displayed on the left sidebar (e.g. Request Insight Training, Documentation and Release Notes). Active selections are indicated by a change in tab color (from dark blue to light blue). A logout option is always available at the top right, via a Log Out link.
