Companies use different ways to organize their projects, and the type of methodology they use determines the tool that is best suited for their needs. Jira is a project management software designed to help teams of all types to manage work.
Jira is an issue tracking and project management tool that is highly configurable and flexible, which allows it to be used in a wide variety of processes.
There are different versions of Jira available, but the core concepts are applicable across these versions. In this course, we will be using a non-premium version of Jira Software on Cloud. Jira Software is the flagship version of Jira that is used for agile project management, meaning it is beneficial for companies that use the Agile methodology. With that being said, learning Jira requires learning some Agile concepts, and this course includes a crash course on the basics of Agile methodology to help you get started with Jira.
By the end of this course, you will gain a clear understanding of Jira and the best way to use it for effective project management in teams.
