    I didn't even understand any of the courses, what kind of people will they be useful for?

    • ldd-mn on 09/05/2024 - 10:23

      People who want really specific jobs

      Generally those in IT and DevOps areas/positions.

      Useful if you’re working in an Agile environment and using their products.

        How does one become an overpaid JIRA ticket manager?

          Get a bachelor's in anything (probably business or IT) - not because you'll learn anything applicable to your eventual job - but because the person hiring you will think you did. Convince said person hiring that the way they currently manage their work is wrong. Come in and hold a series of WoW (Ways Of Working) meetings where the team members get to "define a story point" for the hundred thousandth time. Leave after your 6 month contract is up having achieved nothing, except having bothered everyone every daily standup about why X ticket hasn't moved in X days. Leave everthing slightly worse off and primed for the next one of you.

    You previously had to pay to learn how to use their products? Weird business model, but ok.

    • itshammer on 09/05/2024 - 10:30
      +16

      I guess Microsoft and aws are the same

      • jdawg on 09/05/2024 - 10:33

        Microsoft and aws are massive goliaths that are either monopolies or duopolies.

        I guess the business model to charge to learn how to use their products wasn't working for Atlassian, hence why they have made it free.

          Microsoft and aws are massive goliaths that are either monopolies or duopolies.

          Atlassian is kind of monopoly in some areas. There is no real competition to Jira at enterprise level, for example, even though the industry seems to have a love and hate relation with it.

            @bio: Jira is hated by users and loved by middle management. It gives them loads of data to export to excel, turn into pivot tables and present to upper management.

              @brandt:

              Jira is hated by users

              Is it because users are therefore accountable?

              My team love Jira.

                Is it because users are therefore accountable?

                Maybe for some but I doubt the majority and those kinds of people will hate any tool not specifically Jira. There still legitimate reasons to dislike using Jira, namely the clunky and slow UI. The other big reason in my experience is more down to how it's set up in large orgs; centralised, locked-down config that doesn't suit a team's workflow but you don't have permission to change it and it's not easy because same workflow is likely used by multiple teams.

                Trello seems far more slick.

                    @brawndo: yep, they bought Trello and brought most of the features inhouse called Jira Work Management, of which they just announced last week they're 'merging' into Jira Software & calling it Jira. To me it's just killing it quietly.

            • Unleash3896 on 09/05/2024 - 12:29

              @brandt: I can assure you that middle management hates it too.

              Even if you're in an organisation that has qualified administrators and know how to put the foot down and execute. Those guys are still going to be mad that they were forced onto cloud, paying ridiculously pumped fees for worse performance

            @bio: AzureDevops has sprint board, backlog and etc, been using it for last 2+ years. Covers most of day to day JIRA functionality without having to fiddle in separate tool. Wouldn't go back to use JIRA.

          Atlassian isn't a small company. Their products are practically ubiquitous in Software development

    • geekcohen on 09/05/2024 - 10:49

      SalesForce do it too. Not only do you need to do the training, but then pay for an exam and then pay for the product.

      As @itshammer said, similar to Microsoft and AWS.

      • itshammer on 09/05/2024 - 11:07

        SFDC has trailhead which is free though

      Some of the people I work with need more than a course…

      • VerticallyIntegrated on 09/05/2024 - 11:12

        Training is out of scope for this sprint.

        Please estimate this task in terms of t-shirt size for backlog grooming.

    • geekcohen on 09/05/2024 - 11:03

      Depends on what people are specifically doing.

      General user, no. Admin user, yes, it takes some learning.

      If you have used Trello before, then Jira is pretty much the same. But, you need someone who knows how to configure Jira to make it work the best.

    • hustlebwnz on 09/05/2024 - 11:59

      Have you used Jira beyond the basics? There's quite a bit to the administration of it.

    • calcium on 12/05/2024 - 22:29

    Our products are so convoluted we had to create a university for them.

    • kmwa on 09/05/2024 - 13:46

      Snigger!
      Just to be perfectly clear, this is not a university.
      This is the training department for a company offering a small range of software products.
      In Australia, it is a criminal offence to call an institution a university, or issue university degrees, without authorisation through an act of federal or state parliaments.
      Under the Higher Education Support Act 2003, corporations wishing to use the term "university" require approval from the relevant government minister, the Minister for Education (as of May 2010).
      From 24 April 2021, the Government introduced new requirements to use the word ‘university’ (or words or expressions of similar meaning) in Australian domain names. From that date, it is unlawful to use a new Australian domain name (e.g. ending in “.au”) with these words or letters without approval from the Minister.
      If some naive IT person describes their Atlassian certification as being from a "university", "it is like putting a time bomb in your résumé. It could go off at any time, with dire consequences. The people who sell fake degrees will probably never suffer at all, but the people who buy them often suffer mightily. And – particularly if their "degree" is health-related – their clients may be seriously harmed."

      • Telios on 09/05/2024 - 18:31

        Honestly to god I hate it with a passion.

        It's like a shittier version of all our existing products and we don't even use JIRA or the front-end stuff.

        I refuse to upload my documentation into confluence.

          If you think it's for uploading documentation then you're doing it wrong

    Atlassian is not a TEQSA accredited university, and does not grant Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) awards. No deal.

  • grack on 09/05/2024 - 20:54

    Atlassian will do literally anything but improve their existing products.

  • AlienC on 10/05/2024 - 07:25

    So can you land a job with just this course or is this mainly to add to your stockpile of tickets to learn how to use their software and systems?

    • overbyte on 10/05/2024 - 08:02
      +4

      The latter. It's the Atlassian equivalent of Microsoft 365 training where it tells you how to create tables in Word or a chart in Excel, etc. It's very entry level and nothing a seasoned sysadmin can't figure out from poking around at the admin UI.

      If your company uses Atlassian products you point new employees to training like this as part of an onboarding plan.
