User Stories Training helps users clearly capture requirements for the team. User Stories are not just copies of the business requirements, there are rules to make them easy to follow and provide enough flexibility to the development team. You will learn how to create lightweight stories that capture customers’ needs and limitations. By the end of the day, you will get knowledge and hands-on experience. The training is recommended to anyone who needs to write user stories and epics.
