This course focuses on the Agile project team. Project managers and product owners learn how to turn customer feedback into a well-organised backlog and how to ensure that estimation statistics are giving them the information they need.
Scrum masters and board admins learn how to configure boards to meet all project requirements, regardless of the complexity of the project. Developers learn how to use and log time against sub-tasks. The entire team experiences the benefits of Jira Software's integration with development and collaboration tools, for the purpose of monitoring sprints and planning releases. They also learn how to maximise Jira's reporting capabilities.
