Hi [Manager's Name],

I'd like to request approval for professional development training that I believe will directly benefit our work with WordPress sites.

The "Modern WordPress Fast Track" course covers modern WordPress development skills including block theme creation, automated testing, performance optimization, and deployment workflows. These skills align directly with our current and upcoming WordPress projects.

Course details:
- 10-week curriculum taught by a former Director of Engineering at one of the leading WordPress agencies
- Covers modern WordPress development practices, testing, and automation
- Includes practical projects and code examples we can apply to our work
- Cost: $234 (currently discounted 40% from regular $390 price)
- Time commitment: ~2-3 hours per week, with lifetime access to materials

The ROI for the company includes:
- Reduced development time through improved workflows and automation
- Fewer bugs and maintenance issues with proper testing implementation
- Better performance for our WordPress sites through optimization techniques
- Ability to implement modern WordPress features our clients/users expect

I'm happy to share what I learn with the team and apply these skills directly to our projects. The course starts on June 1st, with a presale discount available until May 21st.

Best regards,
