    Skills You Will Build in Jira

    From First Board to Full Administration

    In Jira training you learn to plan, track and report on work in Atlassian Jira end to end. Fundamentals covers projects, issues, Scrum and Kanban boards, filters and Agile reports, while Advanced adds workflow design, schemes, automation, dashboards, administration and integrations.

    Set up Scrum, Kanban and Business Projects

    You will learn to create and configure Jira projects end to end, choosing the right project type, setting the project key, roles and access, and understanding team-managed versus company-managed projects.

    Manage the Full Jira Issue Hierarchy

    Create and manage issues across Epics, Stories, Tasks, Bugs and Subtasks, using fields such as priority, assignee, labels, components and story points, and link, watch and comment to keep work moving.

    Run Sprints on the Scrum Board

    Refine the backlog, estimate with story points, plan and start sprints, manage the active board with swimlanes and quick filters, then complete sprints and read the sprint report and velocity chart.

    Control Flow with Kanban and WIP Limits

    Manage continuous-flow work on the Kanban board, configure columns and WIP limits, use the Kanban backlog, and read the cumulative flow diagram to spot bottlenecks and keep delivery healthy.

    Search and Filter Work Using JQL

    Build and save filters, then move into Jira Query Language to find work precisely with fields, operators and functions such as currentUser and openSprints, and share saved searches across the team.

    Build Agile Reports and Dashboards

    Turn Jira data into velocity, burndown and cumulative flow reports, and assemble team and management dashboards from gadgets so leaders get a clear, real-time view of delivery.

    Design Workflows, Schemes and Automation

    At Advanced level, design workflows with statuses, transitions, conditions, validators and post-functions, configure permission and notification schemes, and build no-code automation rules to remove manual work.

    Administer Jira and Connect Your Toolchain

    Manage users, groups and global settings, and integrate Jira with Confluence, Bitbucket, GitHub and CI/CD pipelines for end-to-end delivery tracking, following sound governance practice.
