Dear [your manager’s name],



I’d like to attend AWS re:Invent 2022, Nov. 28 – Dec. 2 in Las Vegas. I’m sure to learn a lot, fast, during an entire week connecting and collaborating in-person with AWS experts and other customers. With your permission, I can help our company:

Boost proficiency in core AWS services, like Amazon EC2, Amazon S3, Amazon RDS, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon Aurora.

Get educated on technical best practices at over 1,500 breakout sessions on topics such as cloud architecture, continuous deployment, large-scale migrations, machine learning, and more.

Gain valuable hands-on experience at technical bootcamps, self-paced labs, two-hour workshops, and hackathons, which I can bring back to my team.


Here’s an estimated breakdown of costs:

Domestic airfare estimate: $600
Hotel (five nights at the average re:Invent rate): $192 per night/$960 + tax and resort fees
Registration fee: $1,799
Total: $3,359


After the conference, I’ll circulate a report with a summary of what I learned and how it could benefit our company.

Thank you for considering my request to attend this event.

Looking forward to your reply.
