Overview
An expert instructor teach your team how to use Confluence by designing spaces — collections of related pages — that fit your team’s unique needs and goals.
Your team will learn how to best organize and maintain their Confluence content so they can always find what they need. They’ll also learn how to control access to their content, declutter their space, create standardized content using templates and blueprints, and use macros to reduce the need for manual updates.
Throughout the course, your team will be able to ask organization-specific questions in real-time and get the answers they need. The team learning environment delivers engagement, retention, and collaboration, extending the benefits of an instructor-led course beyond instruction time.
