Dear Manager S Name

Dear [Manager’s Name]

I would like your approval to attend NIDays 2016 in City, State on Month Day, 2016. This complimentary one-day conference, hosted by National Instruments, is exclusively designed for engineers and scientists to learn about the latest technologies, best practices, and application trends for designing measurement, embedded and test systems. It provides a wealth of value second only to NIWeek, NI’s international week-long conference in Austin, Texas.

While attending to NIDays, I’ll have the opportunity to meet with the hundreds of engineering leaders, domain experts, and managers from technology companies in our region. The event also features multiple tracks, with over 18 technical sessions and hands-on workshops, keynotes from industry leaders, and an exhibit area with NI product demonstrations and technology partners.

NIDays features the following sessions that I would like to attend:  [Session 1]  [Session 2]  [Session 3]  [Session 4]

I am confident that my attendance at NIDays will most certainly improve our team’s productivity, cost savings, and business impact. Moreover, I can share what I learn with others in our company, spreading the impact of NIDays’ value.

I’ve broken down the approximate cost of my attendance at  Airfare/Travel: [If applicable]  Hotel: [If applicable]  Conference Pass: $0  Total: $

The earlier I register, the cheaper it will be. Let me know if you have any questions about this valuable technical conference. I hope you agree that my attendance will make a significant, positive impact on our organization.

Thank you for considering my request, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely, [Your Name]
