Is it difficult to convince your boss to send you to the conference? This letter has helped many other members communicate the value of attending PTC/USER World Event. We are sure that it will help you as well.
There are two versions: version 1 is more conversational, while version 2 shows the benefits of attending in bullet form.
I wish to participate in an educational conference this June that is critical for our team’s success. At the PTC/USER World Event, I will learn how we can maximize returns on our investment in PTC software, stay ahead of our competition, and how we can survive today and thrive in the future.
I can craft a personalized agenda of topics relevant to our company from a curriculum of over 300 sessions. I will share this practical knowledge with our team using the event proceedings, spreading new ideas and new energy throughout our workplace. I will absorb first-person accounts by PTC/USER members, PTC engineers, and other experts of how they solved difficult problems and apply those ideas to our own obstacles.
Through the keynote, roadmap and product update presentations, the PTC leadership team will explain the product vision and strategy, software enhancements and development plans. Instead of consuming countless hours in the office doing research on third-party products, I will explore over 100 exhibits of the best, latest solutions from PTC and their partners, all in one place.
Furthermore, I can choose from nearly 200 hours of instructor-led classes and workshops covering the entire PTC software line. I can take any course from PTC University’s e-Learning portfolio containing over 1000 hours of courseware. I could even attend the optional in-depth post-conference training at a huge discount.
The World Event offers a great immediate payback on attendance costs. The free PTC training is worth hundreds of dollars alone. Boosting my productivity by a modest 5% with the insights I gain translates into huge savings. Imagine how those savings multiply as I educate my office colleagues.
Conference fees and travel expenses are insignificant compared to our total investment in PTC software and its importance to our objectives. Doesn't it make sense to spend a few dollars to ensure we obtain the maximum benefits we expect from our technology?
The June conference is our only opportunity to participate this year. By registering before May 8, we save money with early bird pricing. I think you’ll agree that attending this event is crucial to secure our future success and that you approve this small but necessary expenditure.
I wish to participate in an educational conference this June that is critical for our team’s success and would like your permission to attend. The top 10 objectives I will fulfill by attending the PTC/USER World Event include:
1. Improving our organization's bottom line today. I will learn new approaches, tips and practices to drive improvements in our product development processes.
2. Crafting a personalized curriculum to suit our needs. With the new agenda builder I will select relevant and timely topics that address our burning questions.
3. Understanding PTC's product vision and strategy through the keynote, roadmap and product updates, and how software enhancements and development plans will impact our company.
4. Influencing the future of PTC software. The Usability Lab and Technical Committees provide feedback directly to the PTC software development team, and our participation helps ensure that enhancements align with our organization's objectives.
5. Networking with my peers to share new ideas and experiences. I will connect with top experts from the community, PTC and our Industry Partners.
6. Attending FREE training. I can choose from nearly 200 hours of instructor-led classes, over 1000 hours of self-paced PTC University online courseware, and even attend optional, in-depth post-conference PTC training at a huge discount.
7. Sharing the wealth of knowledge. I will train co-workers using the conference proceedings and spread new ideas and new energy throughout your workplace.
8. Exploring leading-edge solutions in the Exhibit Hall. With over 100 Partner and PTC exhibits, and the Manufacturing Pavilion, I will save countless hours of research by seeing the best and latest technology gathered in one location.
9. Learning to conquer our competition. Research shows organizations that invest in their capabilities during economic downturns achieve far greater prosperity long-term than do their rivals who hunker down and sit on the sidelines. I will learn how we can survive today and thrive tomorrow.
10. Absorbing three-and-a-half days of in-depth training, education and networking not available anywhere else!
