Indeed a great course which explains the agile methodology concepts from theory to practical implementation with JIRA. And it will definitely help learners if they are using JIRA in the organization.

Overall, brilliant, with no discrepancy between lab instructions and hands-on practice in Jira software. Some of the video lectures with Steve's narration are quite long. It would be better to break them down and also introduce more pop-quizzes at shorter intervals.

Great course at the beginning when it went over the origin of Agile and the differences between Kanban/Scrum. I was absolutely ingrained in the course when he was going over that material.

After that it mostly turned into "how to use Jira" - it was informative.

This course is perfect for someone who begins with Atlassian and Agile until week 4. Week 4 is more oriented toward creating Epic, access and mass updates. Those features are not always granted to everyone in the company so it was less appropriated to all.

I think some more theory into the use of the different issue types and also versions would have been helpful. I found myself looking outside of the course content to get more an idea on their purpose. Apart from that, a really nice intro into Jira.

The course besides giving a good overview of Jira provides plenty of opportunity for hands on exercises. The course creates the necessity for the Learner to go online and find out more about Jira on the Jira site and from the Jira community.

It had been a while since I'd used Jira, and I had never had any formal training in using it. This course plugged the gap well allowing me to refamiliarise myself with the core features of Jira as well as informing me on best practice.

Detailed and good information for someone new to the Jira platform and agile frameworks such as kanban or scrum. Could use a bit more visual representation of concepts, particularly in the sections about users/groups and permissions.

This is a good course overall. However, I found it difficult to locate certain features within Jira and when I did find them they did not function as described in the lab instructions. I feel that the labs may need to be updated.

Thank you for your explanation.

However, the last subjects were a little bit difficult to understand as there was too much information.

Maybe you can explain it a little bit easier or in a more interactive way.

Anyway, thank you.

The course is great for beginners which did not have any experience with Jira. Some parts should be more interesting (JQL, filters..) . I suggest more interactive tasks, such as case studies not simple read-click instructions.

One issue I had was that I couldn't open two windows - one with the video playing and the other with the transcript. When I tried, Coursera would lose the progress and I'd have to play the video again to capture the progress.

It's a nice course not only to learn Jira but also to understand the core principles of Agile methodology and lean philosophy. After this course, I can now use Jira and apply Agile principles more effectively to my projects.

Useful and interesting course. I would like to see practical examples in the labs, implementing a simple 'imaginary' software product. This would give the reader a better understanding of how to utilise Jira in practice.

Interesante como primera toma de contacto con Jira. Es una plataforma muy completa que pese a su sencillez se puede hacer un mundo.

Los vídeos son monótonos pero te dan las herramientas necesarias para manejarte en Jira.

Clear and concise, good to follow and gives a good hands-on overview. I am just getting started to really use JIRA for our project administration and I feel much more comfortable now having gone through these basics.

If you work with Jira you will fly through this course. Its a useful exercise to review some fundamentals like this and especially when you're working in SAFe where multiple projects can become particualarly busy.

Nice Course to learn. In depth learning. I personally feel it could be improved by adding capstone project or any real project for practice. But overall experience was awesome. Thank you Atlassian for this course.

Good introduction to the jira software. easy to follow as learning chunks are maximum of 20 minutes. I recommend to anyone starting using jira or wants to learn basics to navigate more easily in complex projects.

This course gives a good start for beginners. As well it extends the knowledge of advanced users in specific areas.

The way of presenting the topics by Atlassian is very basic and is a room for improvement.

Great course for someone who is not yet familiar with Jira. Might not be suitable for someone who has extensively used Jira before. In the meantime, all the basic concepts of Agile are being explained.

The course was thorough and up to the mark. Labs provide a great hands on learning. Couple of more labs may have helped grasping easy creating or editing options of procedures. I enjoyed the course.

I found some disconnect with the free Jira version and the course. I am not surprised by this since this course is not part of a Jira release and would need to be updated in lockstep with the tool.

It's really well done, I've promoted it in some agile groups. The last week seem to have too much content restricted to match the single week time, I would suggest to split it in two week course.
