Subject: Request for Funding/Reimbursement – Practical SaaS Contract MasterClass

Hi [Manager's Name],​

I would like to register for the Practical SaaS Contract MasterClass, starting on [insert date].

From a business perspective, this training is intended to support faster and more effective contract execution. In practice, that means shorter negotiation cycles, fewer escalations, and greater autonomy in handling common SaaS negotiation issues, which can reduce internal friction and reliance on external counsel.

I believe this program will directly support my work at [company name] by improving how I review, negotiate, and close SaaS agreements, with a focus on efficiency, consistency, and risk-aware decision-making. The MasterClass is an 8-week live online program designed specifically for attorneys [and contract professionals] working on technology contracts. It is highly practical and scenario-based, focusing on real-world SaaS contract negotiations rather than abstract legal the

Topics include:

  • Intellectual Property and Third-Party Components
  • Representations and Warranties
  • Indemnification
  • Limitation of Liability
  • Service Level Agreements
  • Finance and Commercial Terms

Each week includes a 60-minute live class, case studies, and practical examples, with an additional 30 minutes dedicated to Q&A. The program also provides ongoing resources, including:

  • A Scenario-Based SaaS Contract Playbook, updated monthly with redlines, explanations, and negotiation strategies.  
  • Practical SaaS Jargon Glossary, to ensure fluency with technical and legal terminology.
  • Checklists and negotiation tools to apply directly to our contracts.

The course is taught by David Cohen, an international technology attorney with over 20 years of experience negotiating and closing global technology contracts, including working with both early-stage and large companies. The program is informed by practical, deal-driven experience. David has a large LinkedIn following and a weekly newsletter on topics related to SaaS contracting.​

The registration fee is [$___________]. I believe this investment will deliver value by improving contract turnaround time, supporting better commercial outcomes, and helping keep more work in-house. I would therefore like to request approval to submit the training fee as a reimbursable professional development expense.

Thank you for considering this request,
