You work for an international company. You have seen an advertisement for a training course which will be useful for your job. Write a letter to your manager. In your letter: Describe the training course you want to do Explain what the company could do to help you Say how the course will be useful for your job

Dear manager,
I am writing regarding an advertisement for a training course which will help me enhance my skills and benefit my role as DevOps Engineer.
I had set a goal to advance my skills in my current work as a DevOps engineer, and this program is the perfect opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge on the topic. There is a company policy which helps employees enhance their skills by taking courses, attending seminars and further studies; I was hoping the company would support me in taking a course, Advanced DevOps, offered by Udemy with a duration of 3 months. After the successful completion of the course, they will issue an online certificate which is recognized worldwide.
The course provides comprehensive knowledge of DevOps, which includes cloud computing, ansible scripting, serverless functions and various advanced DevOps topics. As you are aware, the company is planning to migrate all of the systems to the cloud in about 6 months, and it would be a challenging task for all of us. If I were to enroll in that training, I would be able to perform migration of some of the systems, and this will help reduce pressure from the team as well.
Thank you for your time and I am eagerly awaiting your positive response.
Sincerely,
Saajan Joshi

The letter is logically organized and ideas are connected well. However, there are a few areas where the flow of ideas could be improved.

Suggestions
  • Consider using more varied linking words to improve the flow of ideas.
  • Ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic.

The letter uses a good range of vocabulary and there is evidence of less common and idiomatic language. However, there are a few instances of awkward or incorrect word choice.

The letter demonstrates a good control of a range of grammatical structures. However, there are a few minor errors that could be addressed.

The letter addresses all the requirements of the task. The writer describes the training course, explains what the company could do to help, and describes how the course will be useful for the job. The ideas are well-developed and supported with relevant examples. However, the letter could be improved by providing more specific details about how the course will benefit the writer and the company. Additionally, the writer could use a more formal tone and address the manager by name.

Suggestions
  • Provide more specific details about how the course will benefit you and the company. For example, you could provide details about the specific skills you will gain and how you will apply these skills in your job.
  • Use a more formal tone and address the manager by name (e.g., “Dear Mr. Smith”).
