Conduct search on your own about several business-related topics that are important to you. Choose three that are of interest to you and find out more about them. For example, you may be interested in setting up a business of your own or learning more about an existing business. Using business-related topics as your research, design a Word or Excel table and describe briefly each of the three topics that you identified in Lesson 1. Note the following for EACH topic:
1. What types of data you need to collect?
2. When should the data be collected e.g. a one-time collection, quarterly, or yearly?
3. How data might be collected (this can be refined as you move forward)
4. From whom data will be collected
5. Why the data is to be collected.
