Introduction to JIRA

Jira software is built for every member of your software team to plan, track and release software.

Whether your organisation uses kanban, scrum or another methodology to develop software, managing your issues can be easily done with JIRA.

Our intention is to learn you how to use JIRA and provide you with a hands-on experience. The JIRA introduction training is a workshop to familiarize you with all main JIRA features and we will guide you through all the JIRA topics in order to set up JIRA and to track issues. During the training you will learn to create projects and issues, moving cards in the board and so on.

Investing in this 1-day training gets you up and running to use JIRA on an everyday basis.

Nevertheless, this training is focused on learning the tool, our experienced trainers will make time to discuss your personal experiences and the questions that came up during the workshops. The trainer will help you reframe and better formulate your questions, so you are able to pinpoint them towards your management, the advanced JIRA trainer, our CTG Agile experts and so on.

Devops geeks and confluence integrators are invited to register for an extra day of our JIRA advanced training. This advanced training is currently under development and is coming out soon. This training will not go into the details of all the testing methodologies that JIRA is capable of handling. Our main focus is the general use of JIRA.

Do not hesitate to contact CTG if you are interested in the advanced training or you want to follow our JIRA training in-house.
