The Jira Skills You Will Master
Boards, Workflows and Reporting
This training builds practical, hands-on Jira capability step by step, from creating projects and running boards to designing workflows, automation and integrations. By the end, you can plan, track and deliver work confidently in Jira and support your team's Agile delivery.
Create and Configure Jira Projects
Set up Scrum, Kanban and Business projects, understand team-managed versus company-managed projects, define project keys and roles, and work through the project settings that shape how a team tracks its work.
Manage Issues Across the Hierarchy
Work fluently with Epics, Stories, Tasks, Bugs and Subtasks. Create and edit issues, use fields such as priority, components and fix version, transition issues through statuses, and link related work.
Run Sprints on the Scrum Board
Refine and prioritise the backlog, estimate with story points, plan and start sprints, manage the active board with swimlanes and quick filters, and close sprints with a clear sprint review.
Manage Flow on the Kanban Board
Configure Kanban boards and columns, apply WIP limits, use the Kanban backlog, and plan releases with roadmaps, versions and components for teams working in continuous flow.
Search with Filters and JQL
Build and save filters, write Jira Query Language using common fields, operators and functions, and reuse queries to find and track work quickly across projects and teams.
Read Agile Reports and Dashboards
Interpret velocity, burndown and cumulative flow reports, and build team and management dashboards using Jira gadgets so stakeholders get clear, real-time delivery visibility.
Design Workflows and Automation
Create custom statuses and transitions with conditions, validators and post-functions, and build no-code automation rules for auto-assignment, auto-transition and everyday delivery tasks.
