Helpful hints!

Sending a motivation for an investment in your professional development is just one part of getting assistance you need. Here are some hints to assist you in getting that investment.

✓ Do your research

 

If you’re looking to get your employer to fund your professional development, it’s important that you have the right information. Make sure you know everything about the course (why you’d do it and how it will help you and your employer). Also know exactly why the course is perfect for you. Knowing the answers to these critical questions shows dedication and commitment.

You also want to do some research on your organisation’s policies relating to training and professional development. In many cases, laboratories and other organisations in diagnostics have tuition assistance policies or specific training targets. Asking your HR department for information could highlight additional opportunities that you can pursue.

Ultimately, your employer will want a return on their investment into your professional development. Make sure you present a persuasive and honest argument!

 

✓ Highlight the benefits

Make a list of the ways that your laboratory (and particularly your team) will benefit from your new skills. This should include:

  • Your increased value to your team and the laboratory, through knowledge and ability
  • Your ability to take on new projects and assist in other, much needed areas of the laboratory
  • Introducing the laboratory to your newfound knowledge of leading practice industry tools and up-to-date methods
  • Taking an even more professional and innovative approach to your work and empowering those around you with new insights and knowledge
  • Being able to take on a strong leadership or management role, where it is needed
  • You can mentor new employees, and train your team members with your new skills
 

✓ Offer to contribute

 

Over and above a return on investment, your employer wants to see passion and commitment. By offering to contribute a portion of the course costs out of your salary, you are not only showing you are serious, but it will underscore your employer's belief in the value of the course - perhaps even prompting your employer to pay for the course in full.

Ultimately, our courses provide a valuable investment in your future and the performance of your team and organisation.
