I'm new to Confluence, what's the best way to start learning to use

[Sara Elhasnaoui]

Hi everyone, I’m new to Confluence and just joined the community. I’d love to get your advice on the best way to start learning how to use it effectively. Are there any beginner-friendly tutorials, guides, or best practices you’d recommend? I’m especially interested in learning how to organize content, create pages, and collaborate with a team. Thanks in advance

Hi Sara,

let me share what I consider being a good way to start.

If you have being using a different software before, I would try to recreate what you already has, the same visual and functions and learn new features on the go.

Another technique is to have a first draft of the structure and functionality you'll need planed/prepared with paper and pen.

Both options will help you not to get overwhelmed with all the features and options available.

Also here there are some free events https://community.atlassian.com/ and a couple of learning paths to get familiar with the environment. The events are usually done by people who also have youtube channels where you can find even more content.

I hope it helps you to get started. Just don't worry to get to the final version on your couple of first times. There's so much good ways to use Confluence, with time you'll find what fits your team best.
