MCSA BI reporting certification

I see the following 2 exams to obtain MCSA BI reporting certification. 

 

  • Exam 70-778: Analyzing and Visualizing Data with Power BI
  • Exam 70-779: Analyzing and Visualizing Data with Microsoft Excel

Do we need to clear both the exams to get certified or clearing any one exam would get me the certification ?

    Hi Anonymous ,

    I think you need to clear both the exams to get MCSA certified.

    Clearing just one of them would earn you a badge.

    Thanks.

  • Hi Anonymous ,

    We need to clear both of them. The certification requires us to demonstrate our expertise in analyzing data with both Power BI and Excel

    You could reference this : MCSA: BI Reporting to understand more.

      Does each certification cost 165 $ ? Should both of these exams be taken on different days ?

        Hi,
        It will cost you individually. Better to attend both the exam on different day.
