How do I start using JIRA and it's feature to help me track my personal tasks unrelated to a company

[simran kaur]

Hi, I am new to using JIRA and would like to learn how to use it to manage my personal tasks and to learn the features for general knowledge. 

Is there a training I can take to get familiar with the platform and learn how to create a new job board to track tasks?

Anybody can set up a new subscription to Jira Cloud by going to https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira and clicking the Try Jira Free. As long as you stay below 10 users you can continue to use it for free. 

If you are going to create your own Jira Cloud subscription you will also have to learn how to administer the application. You can find courses on administering Jira in the same website mentioned above.
