rarely used by data scientists.

Module 13 & 14 - Power BI & Tableau

• BI tools nowadays are mainly used by BI developers, data analysts etc. Hence it is
ok if you don’t learn them as a data scientist. Majority of the time whenever data
scientists have a need of BI dashboards they will take help of BI or data analyst
teams. In small organizations however, sometimes data scientist work on building
BI dashboards but in general you should not worry about learning BI tool for a
data scientist career
