Dear Ms Kaur,
I am writing to ask whether I might attend a short professional course next month, and to set out how the time could be covered.
The course is a four-day certificate in data analysis run by the city college, held on consecutive Tuesdays throughout May. It covers spreadsheet modelling and basic reporting, and it is taught in the afternoons, from two until five.
I think it would be directly useful to the team. At present we send our monthly figures to an external consultant for analysis, which is both slow and expensive. If I completed this course, I would be able to produce those reports internally, and I suspect we would get them a good deal faster than we do now.
As for cover, I would be happy to make up the hours by starting early on the days in question, and Daniel has already offered to take any client calls on those afternoons. The course fee is modest and I would be willing to pay half of it myself.
Yours sincerely,
Marek Nowak
