For the people organising everything

You Back Their Work Every Day. Time They Backed Yours.

You plan it, coordinate it and get it over the line — asking on behalf of others is your day job. Asking for yourself is the one thing nobody trained you for. This is a ready-to-send letter requesting funding for your CSPP™ certification, with the brave part already written.




Straight to your inbox. No cost, and no obligation to enrol in anything.

What Putting It Off Costs

Three ways it shows up.

01
The Ask That Stays Unsent
Written alone, it comes out as please, if and maybe — a favour, easy to postpone.

02
The Budget Goes To Whoever Asked
Development budgets approve the requests that arrive well made.

03
The Review Passes Without It
The role conversation happens without the credential to anchor it.

A Letter Written For This Exact Conversation

Some people postpone this ask. More people don’t know it’s theirs to make — organisations fund development for work they’re already benefiting from. Regeneration is a GPM Accredited Training Partner that spends its days turning project work like yours into recognised proof. This template is two pages: three tips that make the ask land, then the letter itself — fill the brackets, send it to whoever holds the budget. It frames the certification as your organisation’s gain, and closes by opening the conversation about your role catching up with your work.

1
The letter, ready to personalise
Everything to fill in is marked — nothing else needs writing.
2
Three tips before you send
Name real projects rather than job titles; frame the request as the organisation’s gain; ask for a conversation about your role, not just a fee.
3
The certification in plain terms
One credential, one exam: the CSPP™, awarded by GPM (Green Project Management®) in partnership with PMI — so the reader knows exactly what they’re funding.
4
It works wherever you work
Non-profits, companies and public bodies alike — and freelancers, with a long-standing client in place of an employer.

Ten minutes to personalise, and the request that kept getting postponed is sitting in the right inbox this week.

The Ask, Reframed

The same request. The only difference is how it arrives.

Sitting in drafts
To: [whoever holds your budget]
Subject: quick question (sorry to ask)
Hi — sorry to bother you. I was just wondering if there might maybe be a little room in the budget for a course I found? It’s probably a lot to ask, so no worries either way…

To: [whoever holds your budget]
Subject: Funding request — what we gain by certifying me
Hi — I’d like to request funding for the CSPP™ certification. Here is what we gain by certifying me, what it costs, and when it starts. The projects I’ve delivered this year make the case. Could we talk this week?
Rhealyn Mugri, founder of Regeneration

From the person who wrote it

“My education in Ireland began with this exact ask — I requested funding, and my employer said yes. Three of the companies I’ve worked for have backed my learning this way. The letter on this page is the one I wish someone had handed me the first time I had to ask.”

You’ve done the work — the letter simply asks them to back it. It goes to your inbox at no cost, the moment you enter your email below. Nothing else is asked of you — no enrolment, no call, no obligation.

A Few Questions, Answered

Do I have to enrol before using this?+
No. The letter stands on its own — it includes the course dates and founding rates so your request is concrete, and what your organisation decides is between you and them.
Will this fill my inbox?+
A short note or two follows the letter, then an occasional useful email from the school. Unsubscribing is one click, at the bottom of any of them.
We’re a nonprofit — what does the organisation get back?+
A certified project professional, for a start. Organisations that fund a team member’s certification can also put a live project forward to the school’s Pro Bono Lab, where a training cohort delivers it under guidance — extra hands for work that has been waiting, while the team member’s own role stays their own.
I’m self-employed — who do I even ask?+
The letter suits any organisation you deliver for. Freelancers, virtual assistants and contractors have asked a long-standing client to co-fund training that improves the service they receive — the framing works the same way.
