Dear Mr Jacob, I am writing

this

letter to inform you about my desire to work in our company’s head office in Amsterdam for about six months. Recently, our company has announced an extensive training

programme

on the techniques of developing new accounting software for mid-size business firms, and I would like to avail

this

opportunity. Our company now develops

such

software for only small firms at our local office and soon we will need to target large business entities. The training

programme

is to be held at our head office from 10th of the

next

July. I would

also

like to add here that

this

particular training

programme

may prove out to be quite important for a software development

team

leader like me in showing the way to the junior

team

members and managing larger projects in the future. I have already talked to my project manager to help my

team

members carry on their routine works without any hurdle, and he assured me that he would jump in to fill the void within the

team

in my absence. So, it would be great if you could arrange for my transfer so that I can join the training

programme

and bring innovations to our

team

. Yours sincerely, John Andrew
