Vibe

Dear [Manager Name], I'm writing to request approval for professional development training through Shift Nudge, an interface design program used by teams at Figma, Google, Microsoft, and Pentagram. The program includes one year of live mentorship with expert instructor MDS (https://shiftnudge.com/mds), a framework for making confident design decisions, a community of 4K+ working designers, and hands-on practice with real-time feedback. Over 4K+ professionals have completed the program, and you can read their reviews at https://shiftnudge.com/reviews I believe this training will strengthen my contributions to our team and allow me to share what I learn with colleagues. The annual membership is $1997, comparable to standard professional development tools and conference attendance. More information is available at https://shiftnudge.com. If this aligns with our team development goals, enrollment options for multiple team members are available at https://shiftnudge.com/teams. I'll receive an official certificate of completion for our records. Thank you for considering this request. Best regards, [Your Name]

Investing in yourself with Shift Nudge is a powerful way to accelerate your career, and we hope your company agrees. If you need additional documentation or have questions about reimbursement, please contact us.
