Justify Your Attendance
Below are practical tips for sharing the value of this event with your supervisor to justify your attendance.
Directly Connect Your Professional Development and Your Organization’s Goals to AAMI Education.
- Review the AAMI education offerings and choose a course that best meet your goals. Share this and the registration website page with your supervisor.
Emphasize How Your Entire Organization Will Benefit from Your Attendance.
- Consider what you can do to involve your team members to maximize your organization’s return on investment (ROI).
- Track all of the knowledge resources you will acquire.
- Identify how you will directly apply the information to your role.
- Ask your colleagues about their emerging needs.
- Bring back contacts and information on products and services that can save you and your team valuable time and money.
- Share speaker handouts with your colleagues and hold a lunch and learn to dissect the new or applicable concepts.
- Volunteer to present on key course themes and/or host a Q&A with your department.
Post Course Reporting
Commit to your manager up front that you will prepare and share a course report with him/her and the team. A course report of one to three pages conveys key information about the course to people who did not attend and ensures that you will transmit its value effectively to your organization.
Examples of information you might include in the report are:
- Executive summary of key themes, concerns, ideas, and practices discussed.
- Course materials and AAMI publications.
- Networking event takeaways (new contacts, why they are important, who will follow up and when).
- Information about products and services gathered from conversations with other attendees and instructors during breaks.
- Program ideas or recommendations picked up or thought of while at the course.
- Consider working on the trip report while at the course or during your travel back home. This is when the information is freshest in your mind, so it makes the trip report much easier to write and quicker to deliver
Provide the Course Information and Cost Considerations in One Place.
- Customize your own justification letter which summarizes how the course will help you advance your professional development, make valuable networking connections, and improve your organization.
- Customize the communication to break down the specific costs.
