DATA SOURCE
There are 3 options, you can choose one of them (there are no restrictions on that)

Bring your own data from work (you can remove any private or confidential information, for example: if you are bringing any sales or cost data of an item/product or service “ the name can be masked)
Use data from your previous work or company you have access to (again you can remove any private/confidential information)
Use data from public domain “ In todays world, there is no dearth of structured data. Here are some places where you can get data from:

Any data source you have access to like the Hawkes Learning Resources

Datasets (1) (Links to an external site.) from Hawkes
Datasets (2) (Links to an external site.) from Hawkes – Look at the additional datasets, not the chapter datasets

U.S. Bureau of Labor Statics (Links to an external site.)
U.S. Governments open data (Links to an external site.)
Center for Medicare and Medicaid services (Links to an external site.)

Amazing visualization or graphics
But remember, we need the data to do analysis, if you look at the bottom of any figure “ Google would provide the source name, and you can retrieve data from there.

Any sports data (from the appropriate website, getting data in structured format for several years might be challenge, but a few minutes or an hour “ you can do it)

For example “ Cricket data could be obtained from espncricinfo (Links to an external site.).
