Atlassian Confluence - Fundamentals - Part 2

Course information

Atlassian Confluence Fundamentals

The Confluence Fundamentals course explains how WIKI products in general and Confluence in particular help organisations collaborate and share vital information. It covers basic functionality required by a new user using an established confluence WIKI. The Lab exercises work through the planning of a workshop, requiring significant communication to organise and outputting information that is vital to share. The presentations draw richly from practical scenarios in which Confluence can be used.

This training course is split into multiple sessions, the module descriptions below reflect the content of the entire course and will not all be delivered within this session.
