New to Jira

Hi,

I am a new user to Jira coming over from basecamp.   Still trying to figure it out.  I am using it for managing several diverse projects.  Hoping to get some tips from the community.  Starting out with an intro post.

Thanks,

Betty

Hi Betty, 

 

1. I like to watch a videos.  

Hence I can say easy way to start, it is Atlassian youtube channel.

For example, Jira Core overview and webinar

2. Next step is visit Jira documentation pages (https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/jira-documentation-1556.html)

3. Also the same step is Team Playbook https://www.atlassian.com/team-playbook and visit Atlassian marketplace marketplace.atlassian.com

4. Next step is visit Atlassian user group. aug.atlassian.com (e.g. I am from Russia, Saint-Petersburg,  and I can find our local AUG site here aug.atlassian.com/st-petersburg/

5. It is practice and ask in community.atlassian.com

6. Next step speak with integrators, partners like https://www.atlassian.com/partners/search?page=1

7. Visit Atlassian Summit, where you can understand and see many plugin vendors in one place (https://www.atlassian.com/company/events/summit) Also you can find videos in Youtube.

8. Atlassian certification: https://www.atlassian.com/university Here you can check you knowledge. 

 

Hope it helps
