      Are you saying that businesses offer discounts in order to get more business? Send your address, your MBA is on it's way!

  • TEER3X on 20/05/2020 - 15:06

    Have 30 days to complete once enrolled. Anyone know how long each one would take?

    Don't think I'd be able to complete them all within 30-40 days

    • AssociatedShwayne @ atlassian.com on 20/05/2020 - 15:19

      Each course is roughly 4-8 hours long, you can click through for more details.

        Thanks, once I complete the courses, how much is your boss offering to hire me, as a base salary and are there any perks like a company car (eg Tesla)?

        • resisting the urge on 21/05/2020 - 09:38

          You can go back to your old boss, or a similar one, and with any luck, get re-hired for less, whilst wondering where all the wealth disappeared to.

    • twocsies on 31/05/2020 - 13:52

      When you enroll in this Learn From Home (LFH) course, you’ll have access to the content for 60 days.

    Their software should be easy enough to use that training shouldn’t be needed or should be free?
    “Pay for our software then pay to learn how to use it” bit archaic.

    • abc on 20/05/2020 - 15:17

      Easy enough to use but maybe not as to Administer/Manage if you have never had exposure.

      What? Have you ever used professional software in your life?

      Might just look good in your resume that's about it.

      We use Atlassian applications at work heavily. Daily user of jira, confluence and bitbucket. I would say if your team uses jira and confluence, should be easy enough to pick up on the job. Plus, every team seems to use jira differently. Bitbucket might require some self learning if not familiar or haven't used git repositories before.

      • stickyfingers on 20/05/2020 - 20:37

        Agreed. I used Jira at a previous job and currently use Confluence. Picked it up along the way.

    • lockmc on 20/05/2020 - 18:23

      Haha what are you on about??

    • Nebargains on 20/05/2020 - 18:58

      Using both Confluence and Jira as a user is pretty straight forward and doesn't really require any training IMO, administering it though is an entirely different story - though hopefully this should become a lot easier as 'Next Gen Projects' get more and more features.

    • j24bauer on 20/05/2020 - 23:42

      jira is a dogs breakfast…unnecessarily complicated crap

      • resisting the urge on 21/05/2020 - 10:07

        It depends on the level of maturity and practice you need to employ and/or require for the future.

        Plenty of people think they can run a database inside Excel 97 worksheet.

        Some can, but for others, not so much.

        It is the same thing with Knowledge, Change and Release Management: Adopting a particular tool does not make a team deliver anything near best practice, and nor will it implement the best methodology and process for a particular team or project.

        It takes time and effort to build a culture that respects and nourishes healthy practices and reduce bad behaviours. Tools that support trust and long term effectiveness really just make that part easier and cheaper, long before overheads and unexpected impacts can be reduced in the long term.

        IMHO most places adopt at least half-decent tools, but few implement or foster their effective use as well as they should. Most tools do a job in many ways, so when people configure them they often jump in without doing the planning or understanding the task more than they presently do. I can't count the number of times its given to someone junior, or that doesn't know the existing problem very well. And/or critical parts end up on the plate of someone doing 3 other things.

        If the person who has to implement a workplace tool is learning as they go, or has NFI what success looks like in that team, how can they plan how to get there without upsetting the lives of anyone charged with getting the job done?

        There are far shittier tools out there, and for some, vim or emacs, and latex are all anyone need.

    • 1st-Amendment on 21/05/2020 - 11:43

      Why don't you spend some time and effort creating some training courses, then give them away for free?
      Labour voter thinking right there…

      • stickyfingers on 21/05/2020 - 12:11
        +1

        Because it would encourage people to use your software over a competitors.

        • 1st-Amendment on 21/05/2020 - 13:19

          Atlassian market cap is $45B. But sure if you know better, maybe you could start up your own business and show them how it's done?

          • stickyfingers on 21/05/2020 - 13:57

            @1st-Amendment: Why are they giving it away at the moment then?

  • carpecrash on 20/05/2020 - 15:10

    Absolutely ridiculous that you need to PAY to learn how to use their product. As an example, check out how good CRM Hubspot's Learning Centre is https://app.hubspot.com/portal-recommend/l?slug=academy/

    • reactor-au on 20/05/2020 - 16:15

      Microsoft also has their learning portal which is free. Make a product and learning accessible and you get market adoption.

    • [Deactivated] on 20/05/2020 - 17:53

      Microsoft charges big money for training and certification… Most companies do.

    • frankfu1122 on 20/05/2020 - 22:46

      With providers like Microsoft Azure and Amazon AWS, the free courses are usually there to entice you to take paid courses. The free courses are pretty meh if you are serious about getting ahead and accelerating your career. Jira on the hand..haha who knows? May be good for a SCRUM/Agile/PM type people I guess.

    • pav on 21/05/2020 - 00:26

      Hubspot have great online resources but I still get emails about paid trainings which are more expensive than this.

    • therealfattony on 21/05/2020 - 10:07

      The low per user pricing enables very small teams, even individuals to use their products.
      Most other products have a very large upfront and ongoing support costs associated, which may/maynot have some level (usually poor) of training baked into the price.

      I would prefer (and I think the pricing model and very reasonable prices) not to have 10% added to costs to bake in training, and charge a bit for the training for those that require it

  • starspawn on 20/05/2020 - 15:58

    Thanks OP! I have been studying Project Management this semester, will see if I get a chance to complete any of these!

    One of my worst experiences has been figuring out how entitiy relationships work in the Jira db. The 1st rule should be what happens in Jira stays in Jira. Cascaded many to many relationships… spit.

  • fastnet on 20/05/2020 - 16:26

    Jira is an industry standard yet also happens to be one of the most convoluted pieces of software around!

    • [Deactivated] on 20/05/2020 - 17:30

      Complexity depeneds on how it's been administered.

      • malouphix on 21/05/2020 - 05:42

        Ours works well and administered decently with 4 dedicated Atlassian admins and an Atlassian dev/arch.

        Our use cases for the Atlassian suite are software and hardware devs, IT projects kanban, IT service desk, infosec kanban, CMDB, facilities, HR. And each business unit has Confluence spaces for their collabs too.

    • lowlifesphere on 20/05/2020 - 19:21

      I agree, I hate it. Microsoft devops is way better.

    • hoxyz on 20/05/2020 - 21:36

      It's popular, but being a standard is way overrated.

    • ak47wong on 21/05/2020 - 02:07

      Also one of the ugliest pieces of software around.

      • yjun355 on 20/05/2020 - 19:56

        i don't think it would matter. Trello is Atlassian product as well.

        • resisting the urge on 21/05/2020 - 10:12

          Now maybe, but not exactly- they bought it. Unlike many, not because their own product is in any way deficient

  • hoxyz on 20/05/2020 - 21:40

    Employers won't hire you if you're trained in JIRA. At most, consider if you've been in a team using JIRA.

    • ak47wong on 21/05/2020 - 02:09

      That's weird. You mean they won't hire you if you're not training in JIRA?

    • twocsies on 31/05/2020 - 13:48

      Fixed it for you:

      Employers won't hire you just because you're trained in JIRA. At most, they might consider you favourably if you've been in a team using JIRA.

      • hoxyz on 31/05/2020 - 16:44

        Thumbs up.

    In any IT job interview all you need to do is mention Jira, Confluence & Agile are your half way to getting hired!
