This course follows on from the Jira Administration Part 1 course. It continues the same case study and goes deeper into the administration tasks covered in Part 1, focusing on Jira Software and Jira Work Management.
Should Cloud customers take this course? It depends. What you learn applies to Jira Cloud, however there are some differences — user and group management has moved to Site Administration, the course does not cover Independent projects, and the UI and navigation differ from the Cloud product. If you are comfortable with these differences, you will benefit from taking this course.
This course explores more complex schemes (only permission and notification schemes were covered in Part 1), more advanced workflow configuration, and board and sprint permissions. It is structured around a case study where an organisation creates a set of configurations and schemes to apply to new and in-progress projects. Real-world examples and best practices are emphasised.
