Project TL;DR

Unite Atlassian's Community and University platforms

Users can level up their skills in Atlassian's productivity tools by utilizing Community and University. They can ask questions, share expertise, and participate in trainings and certifications. Our goal was to unite the two systems to make it easier than ever to learn and grow with Atlassian.

Some final concepts shared with Atlassian

current state

Each system has what the other needs

Community

Pros

Users can ask questions, share case studies, and crowdsource solutions on this platform.

Cons

Users struggle with accessing trainings, certifications, and other learning resources.

University

Pros

Users can get trained and certified in Atlassian tools.

Cons

Users are on their own - they can't share progress, ask questions, or connect with other members training in the same tool.

Similar systems, separate architecture

It's hard to move between the two, but users clearly need both platforms to get the most out of Atlassian's productivity software.

With a united Community and University, users could be more productive and empower their teams to do their best work.

Framing our designs

We needed to articulate how our design vision would help our client's users. To put a face to our hero journeys, we leveraged existing user data and created proto-personas. Meet Kali.
