Much of the course is outdated and the software has changed with menu locations. The way it is written is also confusing and they whoever wrote it needs to understand the difference with terms like "tab" vs "side menu bar" etc. I would not recommend this course due to these issues as it took more than double the amount of time expected just having to figure out how the new version worked vs the old. You are basically left to just figure it out which is not ideal when learning something new as you may think you are doing it incorrectly. I was able to get through the whole thing but Atlassian really needs to review this course and update its instructions (and please have a different person write the course instructions!).

Less topics related to Agile mindset but more on the JIRA software that can be used for achieving agile

Terrible robot voice :(

I have been learning with Coursera for so many years, When you have to waste more than 6 hours in total reading and watching videos then go to an assignment that has nothing to do with Jira itself as site functions and only asks about agile methods You know this course is the worst course so far on Coursera, and I hope they either change it or drop it completely because you can wrap all this in around an hour with 1 video on YouTube

Sehr schlecht! Bezahlte Zertifikate werden nicht übermittelt! Kein Kontakt möglich da nur automatische vorgefertigte Filterscheisse! Wo ist eine Email Adresse für Support???

Unfortunately there must have been updates as some of the info is no longer accurate. Jira is also super over complicated and glitchy

DIDNOT GET COMPLETE KNOLWDGE ON JIRA

Very monotonous, not interesting!

The "Agile with Atlassian Jira" course provided a comprehensive and practical exploration of how to effectively implement Agile methodologies using Jira, Atlassian's powerful project management and team collaboration tool. As someone relatively new to both Agile and Jira, I found the course to be incredibly insightful and helpful in bridging the gap between theory and hands-on application.

One of the standout features of the course was its structured approach. The content was organized in a logical sequence, starting from the fundamental concepts of Agile, and gradually progressing to more advanced topics. This approach allowed for a smooth learning curve, making it easy to build a solid foundation before delving into the intricacies of Jira's features and capabilities.

The hands-on exercises were a highlight of the course. They provided a practical and interactive way to apply the concepts learned, ensuring that I could immediately see the impact of Agile practices within the Jira environment. The step-by-step tutorials and demonstrations made it easy to follow along, even for someone with limited prior experience.

The instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, effectively explaining complex concepts with clarity and enthusiasm. Additionally, the real-world examples and case studies shared throughout the course added a valuable layer of context, illustrating how Agile principles and Jira can be effectively utilized in different industries and scenarios.

However, one aspect that could have been improved was the pacing of the course. Some sections felt a bit rushed, especially when covering more advanced features of Jira. This occasionally made it challenging to fully grasp and absorb the material before moving on.

In conclusion, the "Agile with Atlassian Jira" course provided a valuable learning experience for anyone seeking to understand and apply Agile methodologies using Jira. With its well-structured content, hands-on exercises, and knowledgeable instructors, the course is an excellent resource for individuals and teams looking to enhance their Agile project management skills using the power of Jira.

Learning Agile Development on Atlassian through Coursera has been a great experience. The course provides a comprehensive introduction to Agile development methodologies, including Scrum and Kanban, and how they can be implemented using Atlassian tools such as Jira and Confluence. The course is designed for both beginners and experienced developers, providing a solid foundation for understanding Agile development principles and best practices. The course content is well-organized, easy to follow, and includes a variety of resources such as video lectures, quizzes, and hands-on exercises. The instructors are experienced professionals in the field and are always available to answer questions and provide guidance. Additionally, the course offers real-world examples and case studies, which helped me to understand how Agile development is applied in different organizations and industries. Overall, the course was a great way to gain knowledge in Agile development and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about Agile methodologies and how to use Atlassian tools.

This is probably the best-taught course I've taken on Coursera. You don't just learn the individual tools of the program and then wonder how it works as a whole. You constantly learn how these tools work on a big picture level. The labs are great and really get you to play with all the functions and explore how they work and what you can do. There are questions to answer throughout the videos, so you are constantly getting feedback and seeing how well you are learning everything. I'm not in software development, but I was looking to get into QA or QC for software or gaming, and Jira was the one qualification I didn't have to get the job. So now I can put this on my Resume' and have a chance to get those jobs. So even if you don't have a programming background, you can easily learn the material because of how well this course is taught. I would recommend this course to everyone. And even if you aren't looking to get a job in tech, there are many practical applications to your own life that this program makes easier to manage. So glad I took this course.

Learning Agile with Atlassian is a great way to gain knowledge of agile processes and how they are applied to software project management. The professional is expected to acquire knowledge of agile methodologies, such as Scrum and Kanban, and project management tools, such as Jira Software and Confluence.

However, it is important to remember that knowledge alone is not enough to become a professional skilled in agile processes. Practice and continuous exercise are fundamental to developing skills and becoming an expert in agile project management.

It is therefore essential that professionals apply the concepts they have learned in practice, working on real projects and always seeking to improve their skills through experience and continuous learning.

The Course is Recommended for Beginners who wants to become Cloud Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Network Engineer and also working closely as Project Manager IT in the company or startup. Besides that because I was background in non coders or not a programmer or developer who works for software development like making a website or mobile apps obviously. I work last before as IT Staff in Asuransi Sinarmas Company for 1 Years from 1 October 2020 - 30 September 2021. Just like that, The Course is more Practical for 90 % Materials and 10 % Theoritical for examination. No doubt, Exactly this is the best free course for IT Administrators who adore or switch career to better positions.

Great course that goes into proper detail showing you advanced elements of how to use, customise and configure Jira for software development teams and processes. The course is broken down into 4 modules, each with 5 or more lectures, covering around 10 topics with multiple choice questions that pop-up multiple times throughout the video. There is also 1-2+ labs per each lecture so you get a proper hands-on experience in the topics shown in the videos. There's also a test at the end of each module where you need to score 80% or more and a final hands-on project on the last module.

I came into this course as someone who used the basics of Jira in their every day job (self taught) but was about to take on a more administrative role. I found weeks 3 and 4 most helpful.

The course has a good mix of early on basics which will help form a good foundation knowledge of Jira and its functions. Then it goes into more depth which would suit someone with administrator or project overseer-type responsibilities.

Steve Byrnes has narrated the videos clearly and explains at an adequate pace so that the student doesn't feel rushed or bored.

The Introduction about Agile Concepts are right. When I talked to my manager or workmates we agreed in the whole subject about the process, parts and so on. About the tool at the time I took this course some things changed: names, option's ubication, etc; but it keeps the same essence. It results interesting the last part about versions; personally I haven't used versions in any project and this course gave to me an insight on how and why, and now is worth giving a look to some of Jira features. Really appreciate this course.

Great course for individuals who wish to improve their Agile project management skills using Jira software. I have been using Jira with my current employer for over a year. This course has shown me many aspects of the software that have been under-utilised. Jira is truly a behemoth of a program for any projects ranging from simple use-cases to complex multi-national conglomerate projects. I would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their competencies in the project management field.

As we all know Agile is a Project Development Framework that is the most commonly used Approach in SDLC(Software Development Life Cycle) Process. Where Jira is a Product/Project Management tool that works according to the Agile Approach that is very helpful for the Management team to manage their Projects step by step seamlessly and effectively. I recommend this course to be a part of Management studies in universities so that students aquire amazing skill for their professional careers.

A very good introduction to project management styles including waterfall, scientific and agile. After this course, you'll be comfortable with project and task management in Atlassian Jira. Good theory and practice sections.

It would be much easier to understand the material if this course includes video examples of all interactions with the Jira interface. Instead of just pictures with arrows, underlines, and rectangular emphasis of all fields and buttons that one should click.

I have been using Jira at my workplace for the past 2 years and Agile + Jira for the past year, but I didn't have a basic grip about Agile or Jira.

This course has helped me in filling in the gaps. Now I understand Agile methodologies better and can apply the same to the tasks ahead while using Jira to accurately portray the work.

I have seen JQL queries being used in our Confluence pages and I am confident I can create queries that can showcase my team's work better.

Excellent walkthrough of the JIRA software all the way. Instructor had explained the agile, kanban and scrum concepts very beautifully as I was a novice to these having worked only in waterfall models. One area of improvement I would suggest is that the JIRA software had the projects as "company managed" and "team managed" project types instead of the classic and new-gen types mentioned in the course. Guess it is probably an update from the JIRA software end.

This has been an awesome course and Steve Byrnes was very responsive to questions and issues in the discussion forum. I started out with very little tool knowledge and even less confidence in my ability to learn Jira on my own. This class has really helped me improve my ability to confidently use to do various things. With that said, I'm so excited that I was able to complete the final project without ever looking at m notes. Success!! Thanks, Steve.

This course introduces you to the basic work with Jira and agile project management. It is aimed at people that have a fundamental understanding of project management already and want to look into Atlassians Jira Tool for future managing of (not only) software projects. It is very descritpive and well structured and gets you to take the first steps in the tool yourself, from which you can gofurther and explore its functions and potentials.

as a begginer, i might not be compenent to give rating, but i liked it.

it was easy to understand, i liked that there is on-hands tasks so i could try to do it my self, and i really did it.

a s a non-english speaker, often it was a little bit too fast for me, there were moments when i needed to pause for a second so i can catch up with the material, but i guess thats fine because im not fluent in english, and also because its new material.

This is a very nice and useful introduction to the Agile methodology with a great tool such as Atlassian Jira. I have never used before but now I'm using for work and I'm quite happy to have a way to track my work planning. About the course, it's well designed, the videos and hands-on sections are well connected and give you the feeling that you're learning applicable stuff. I now understand why this methodology is so used currently.
