ENHANCE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY AND PROJECT SUCCESS BY PUTTING YOUR CUSTOMER’S NEED FRONT AND CENTER WITH POWERFUL AGILE USER STORIES.
Understanding the needs of users is one of the key components of any project. But there are some choices in how you gather those needs and how you document them. One very popular and trending technique, especially for Agile projects, is to utilize User Stories.
A User Story is a short, simple description of a feature told from the perspective of the end user. And while these stories are short, they are very impactful. In fact, those one to two sentences provide the context for a series of conversations to fully define the desired functionality.
This course is designed to take you from novice to User Story expert. We’ll break down all of the best practices including User Story format, writing Acceptance Criteria, handling common challenges, splitting User Stories, User Story Mapping, and much more.
Whether you have worked with User Stories for years or you’ve never heard of them until now, this is the perfect course for you.
