Your role: You are a new online college student and you are requesting possible tuition reimbursement compensation from your employer. Write a one page persuasive memo to your boss or immediate supervisor and the director of human resources at your place of employment explaining the situation; persuade these important people in a diplomatic, formal style memo why you feel you deserve this benefit. Make sure they understand what online higher education is and why it has the same value as a face to face "on ground" university degree.
Your strategy:

1. Introduce and/or provide background information for the main idea of this memo

2. Use clear and concise sentences or bulleted reasons for persuading these people

3. Highlight the benefits to you, them and the company if they grant your request

4. Conclude by stating exactly what you want done, by when, and restate a key benefit

General Guidelines:

1. You may use a memo template from Word, if you wish, but please save as a PDF before submitting to ensure your formatting remains intact. See information about memos and sample memo in Workplace Writing text.

2. You may use headings for the different sections of your memo.

3. If you are not presently employed, use a fictitious employer.

4. Try to keep the length of this memo to one page (only this assignment is to be single spaced).

5. There is no need to submit a cover page, abstract or references page due to the nature of this assignment.
