In today's fast-paced agile environments, quality is not an afterthought—it's built into every step of the process. Jira: Plan, Verify, and Deliver is a hands-on course for anyone looking to bring more structure, clarity, and predictability to their team's workflow. This course moves beyond basic ticket-tracking to teach you two of the most powerful quality gates in agile development: the INVEST criteria for user stories and the "Definition of Done" (DoD) for completed tasks.

In this module, you will learn that "Done" is a team agreement, not a personal opinion.
