Nowadays, data visualization and analysis is an extremely crucial and beneficial tasks in any organization.
Hence, learning a proper tool that includes the above functionality is important.
In this case, I would recommend you use Power BI.
If you want to change your career from non-technical background to a tech then also this technology/tool/course is very useful.
Introduction
What is Power BI?
If you want to take any business-related decision based on some company’s data (detailed information) in excel or any non-visualization tool then it is not possible to analyze data properly.
Data visualization tool converts that information into Graphs, charts, pie charts, maps, etc.
So, Power BI is a visualization tool that helps us create imaginative reports for Business decisions.
After creating a particular report, it will then be sent to Management and then they will take proper managerial or financial decisions.
Now, as we know which tool will help us in reaching our goal however one question remains unanswered and that is: How do we learn this tool? What is the road map to learning this tool?
