Preparing a case for sponsorship with your employer Before you approach your employer, we recommend you spend some time considering the following points: ■ Is there a procedure for requesting funding? Consult with your HR department or line manager ■ Can you demonstrate your skills to your employer with an up to date CV? ■ Have you solicited departmental or company-wide support? It helps if the proposal comes via appraisal, your line manager/director or a company mentor ■ Consider what expectations your sponsor might have and what benefits might be attractive to those who can influence the decision on your request for sponsorship ■ Prepare a range of short term and long-term benefits linked to current business activity. There are advantages to be gained from your involvement in the programme and your association with other participants. There are also possible gains from links with Warwick Business School and access to the wider University and its professional networks ■ Consider making proposals as to how you will transfer your new knowledge to colleagues and the organisation.

Equal Opportunities At the University of Warwick we are committed to equality of opportunity, as stated in our Equal Opportunity Policy. We welcome applications from anyone with the potential to succeed in higher education. The University aims to avoid unfair discrimination on whatever grounds, including gender and ethnic background. The Students’ Union Under the requirements of the Education Act 1984 Part 2, the University is obliged to inform students of their right not to be members of the Students’ Union. The University is satisfied that the provision of services of facilities made by the University and the Union for all students, whether they are members of the Union or not, is sufficient to ensure that those who have exercised the right of non-membership under the act are not unfairly disadvantaged; it has therefore made no special arrangements for the provision of services or facilities for non-members of the Union.
