RE: Course Reimbursement
I hereby write this memo requesting for reimbursement of the money spent on taking a technical communication course at the University of North Texas. The course enabled me to learn on how to persuade customers to purchase our goods. I have for the past 7 years, been the head of operations at your company, and I have managed to bring on board twelve institutions which we supply our cleaning services and materials on a weekly basis. Nevertheless, it was my desire that I improve on my technical communication strategies. I undertook the course after my daily work, four times every week for eight months. The course was extensive covering all aspects of how to be accurate, professional and polished when working and how to get the best out of my Operations and Supply Chain Management majors.
Enclosed is the bill I paid for tuition, all the units I covered and the final assessment. I hereby request for the reimbursement of the whole amount I paid as tuition fees which comprise of additional payments for certain cleaning materials. It is my belief that I will help improve the status of your company as I incorporate the exceptional skills I acquired during the course. Regarding my employment contract, reimbursement for fees incurred as tuition is probable if the course impacts on the quality of work in the company.
I cannot strain the company for timely reimbursement, but I thank you for looking into my request. In the case of any questions regarding my fees, please contact me at [728-591-3267]. Thank you for your prompt devotion to this issue.
Yours,
[Insert Name].
