We are moving to Jira and I am learning thru Atlassian U. Need a profile

[Bob Hartmann]

Are training or demo profiles available to use for training before our procurement is complete?

Hi @Bob Hartmann and welcome!

I am not sure if I understand your requirement. You can login to the Atlassian University with your existing Atlassian account or you can create a new account. The login/registration itself is completely free. After logging in, you can select from a range of free courses and paid courses.

If you want to train using a demo instance of Jira, you can always set up a new instance based on the free plan.

Hope this helps.

Thank you Michel for your response. Based on your response, my solution seems to  to set up a new instance based on the free plan. We have not purchased licensing to Jira yet. Thank you.

@Bob Hartmann Glad I could help! Just so you know, you can always upgrade later if you now start with the free plan.

Hi @Bob Hartmann and welcome to the Community.  Echoing @Michel Neeser ~ not exactly sure what you are asking for since you don't provide the hosting type (Data Center or Cloud) but the quickest and easiest way to learn would be to set up a new free instance on Cloud (Michel provided the link).  Another option would be to spin up a Data Center instance in AWS:  Getting started with Jira Data Center on AWS | Administering Jira applications Data Center and Server 9.11 | Atlassian Documentation

This latter option would be fairly involved though.

I plan to set up the free version as Michel recommended. Thank you.
