Prepare a memo or email for your manager (real or invented) asking for tuition reimbursement to attend English 205: Business Writing.
Assume that you work for an organization that has supported tuition reimbursement for other employees but does not have a regular procedure for such a request and thus requires approval far beyond your department. Therefore, you will need to provide adequate background and detail for someone who may not be familiar with you, your duties, or this request.
The effectiveness of your message will depend on how well you are able to show the value of this class and how it will help make you a better employee now or in the future. Use the course textbook and your syllabus in addition to your knowledge of your job duties to help you prepare this memo or email. The length should be no more than one single-spaced page, so remember to be concise and use graphic highlighting.
