this
letter is to inform you about the cancellation of my recent
course

course
which will be started after one month.
Moreover
, I got to know from upper management that
this
course
will be held online basis and for that, everyone should require a laptop or computer at home. Unfortunately, I do not have my personal laptop at my home.
Thus

this
course
without a computer or laptop. I requested to the manager allow me to do
this
course
from the college but he said it is not possible.
Therefore
, I wanted to replace my
course

this
