Atlassian Certified JIRA Administrator

Atlassian's JIRA is a popular solution in the enterprise for issue and project tracking.

A JIRA deployment can be up and running in minutes in the cloud, allowing development teams to leverage the software's collaborative capabilities almost immediately, said Thad West, co-founder and CEO of Isos Technology, an Atlassian Solutions Partner.

Accredited resellers in the Software-as-a-Service vendor's channel are fielding a lot of inbound interest these days.

"This challenging certification is a great addition to the governance process any organization should put in place for mission critical applications like JIRA," West told CRN.

Average salaries for JIRA administrators of various levels on Indeed.com range from $70,000 to about $95,000.
