Save Time, Have a Well Trained Team with Atlassian University

In case you missed Summit, our annual user conference, last month I spoke about using Atlassian University to get teams up to speed on Atlassian products, and at the same time deflecting (stupid) questions off admins. If you have 10 minutes, watch the video below. University, our training program with videos and step-by-step interactive tutorials, can quickly train teams on Atlassian tools.  We've found that some companies get much more benefit out of University than others. "A majority of

I'd had a number of offers for sales roles but I knew I wanted something different.   My
