This short course prepares you to transition into Jira-focused roles (Jira Administrator, IT Support Specialist, Agile Delivery Coordinator) by turning program projects into employer-ready evidence of impact. You will map course projects to 3–5 concise portfolio artifacts with measurable outcomes, create three quantified accomplishment statements and a role-focused one-paragraph resume/LinkedIn summary, and rehearse structured responses to common scenario-based interview questions for Jira support and admin roles. The module features a "A Day in the Life of a Jira user" video, practical pathways to gain experience (internships, volunteer admin work, internal tooling projects), and short job‑search stories from non-traditional entrants. Learning activities include templates, AI-guided drafting and feedback, an HOL for artifact drafting and refinement, an AI interview role-play as Apply, and a summative AI‑graded submission. Learners leave with downloadable templates and a prioritized 30–90 day action plan.
