While I have used Jira for testing and raising bug - this creates so much more potential for stakeholder management. Also provides insights on how to manage workloads between team members

By D'Avanzo Andrea on 10/14/2025

Esattamente quello che mi aspettavo, un corso completo e molto ben spiegato, utile per chi vuole apprendere da subito come utilizzare al meglio questo strumento, e come applicare le metodologie Agile sulle esigenze del proprio team.

By Láďa Matouš Alternative on 2/12/2023

The title of the course is misleading. It is a course on Jira administration for absolute beginners - not bad as such, but there are plenty of them on youtube and for free. There's almost nothing here about actually leading teams in Agile using scrum - how to organize large backlogs, how to organize user story, technical story, spike and bug so that anyone can understand them at all. How to handle approvals, testing, etc. How to do a retrospective in Jira and much much more .......

It was quite detailed course which gives good knowledge and practical approach to resolve all problems. It would be getter benefit while working as as a agile project management

By Anonymized User on 8/9/2022

Good combination of process (scrum, kanban) and tool (Jira) explanation. It doesn't get too technical, it doesn't go theory crafting - can recommend.

By Bongi Mathunjwa on 8/6/2022

My personal experience is that, I have learned a lot in terms of a leading team, I have realized there is so much one can learn, implement and grow as a leader. I feel very empowered.

By Jeremy Banks on 7/18/2022

I'm having a pretty fun time learning more about Jira having used it in a past role. I've been taking some notes on the course and will be looking to find a way to leverage what I'm learning in my current role or even a side gig.

By Amanda Oldakowski on 5/7/2022

I went from knowing nothing about Jira to knowing more than most of my experienced teammates! Would highly recommend to anyone from beginners to folks who are getting ready to take over Jira for their companies.

By Daeshawn Ballard on 3/29/2022

This is a Jira masterclass. I went from zero to looking up the certification test. Do yourself a favor and just take this class if you want to learn this tool.

By Saumyadip Sarkar on 3/1/2022

This is a great course for a starter and can act as a quick refresh for experienced people. I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Will recommend the course to everyone. Wish list - Include Confluence integration.
