You practiced writing and critiquing a persuasive memo prior to this Assignment.
Requests for funding for either a new venture or initiative are a common
business occurrence and demand careful organization to present a persuasive,
thoughtful request. For this Assignment, prepare a 350–500 word persuasive memo
to your supervisor requesting that your company sponsor you individually in a
business writing course that is available at the local university.

If you are not currently working, you may create a fictitious company,
supervisor, and position for yourself. In your memo, provide your supervisor
with the following:

Checklist:

  • Justify taking this course; include an outline of the benefits the company
    will receive from your participation in such an effort.
  • Include the amount of money you are seeking,
  • Specify how long the course will take you to complete, and how your time
    spent completing the course will impact your performance at work.
  • Further guidelines for writing the persuasive memo are posted in Doc
    Sharing, labeled “Unit 1 Memo Template.”

This Funding Memo is due by the end of Unit 1. Complete the funding memo as an MS
Word document. Save it in a location with a title you will remember and that
includes your name. To submit, go to the Dropbox and click on the Unit 1:
Funding Memo link and follow the instructions. Make sure that you save a copy of
the paper you submit.
