The continuous advancement of technology has created a ripe opportunity for the field of applied intelligence. As functions such as business intelligence, predictive modeling, and data mining become more and more critical for organizations, employers are seeking professionals with a mastery of data skills—those who are able to not only interpret data, but also apply it in meaningful ways.
