About This Course

Who this course is for:

What you’ll learn: 

  • Grasp the core features and functionality of JIRA project management.
  • Enhance productivity when using JIRA.
  • Utilize JIRA effectively as a team leader or manager for JIRA user management.
  • Configure JIRA for your team or company as an administrator in using Jira for personal task management.
  • This JIRA project management course does not aim to comprehensively cover every customization aspect in JIRA.
  • We will focus on core concepts and features to expedite your learning in how to use JIRA software for project management.

Requirements: 

  • Following along requires at least a JIRA Software Cloud subscription from Atlassian for JIRA work management tutorial.

The “Understanding JIRA For Users, Managers, And Admins” course is crafted to acquaint you with techniques that boost productivity and efficiency in JIRA. We will focus on the three key user types in JIRA, ensuring that the course modules are tailored to meet the needs of each user profile for an accessible content.

The first module covers fundamental concepts and terminology related to both Agile methodologies and JIRA project management workflows before delving into the software itself.

Subsequently, we explore JIRA from an end user’s perspective for personal task management. The second module delves into the key aspects you should be aware of as an individual using JIRA in your organization.

For team leaders or managers using JIRA project management, the third module addresses strategies to enhance your team’s effectiveness.

Lastly, as a JIRA administrator, you can play a vital role in setting your company up for success in JIRA project management. In the fourth module, we examine JIRA project management from an administrator’s standpoint with best Jira workflows.

Even though this course is organized for different user types, we have ensured that it benefits all users, regardless of their role. For instance, even if you primarily use JIRA as an end user, understanding how JIRA workflows and processes function can be advantageous for effective communication with your JIRA administrator and for using Jira effectively.
