Dear [MANAGER NAME],

This letter is intended to serve as my travel request for the upcoming [EVENT NAME OR DESCRIPTION] being held in [LOCATION] between [DATE] and [DATE].

Essentially, you want to persuade your manager that the benefits associated with the travel more than outweigh the costs.  This will allow your manager to justify the cost of the trip.

The training provided at [EVENT NAME] is directly applicable to [DESCRIBE], and as such, it will better enable me to [DESCRIBE]. Many of the topics to be covered are [DESCRIBE].
