Sample courses data
Course catalog with schedules, instructors, and capacity information
Free to download, no account needed for the 1k-row files below.
Larger sizes — up to 500k rows — need a free account.
This is synthetic data: it looks realistic and refers to nobody, so it
carries none of the data-protection risk of copying production records into a test system.
