Hey Pierre,
What also might work is to propose a contract where it is stipulated
that you will refund a part of the cost should you leave the company
within a given time frame (e.g. 100% if you leave within a year, 50% for
2 years etc.), this way management is sure the investment (training
should always be sold to management as investment) will pay off or be
paid back ...

Hi Pierre,
Not sure of your situation. However what worked for me was
volunteering to cover a part of the cost. The training budget got cut.
I really wanted to do the course and so I made them an offer, It
worked for me.
Regards,
Michael

I have already talked to my direct management and they are all for
sending me to SANS Fire 2013 in Washington, DC.The only issue now
is that I have to convince upper management that it is worth it to
pay for me to go to the training.The class I am taking is SEC506
Securing Unix/Linux and considering our environment is 97% Linux
it should be a no brainer.But I was wondering if anyone could help
provided me with some bullet points I can use in my write up to
help convince upper management to pay for the course.The company I
work for is a contacting company mostly to the Federal Government
with some Private Industry so anything related to the Federal
Government would be great.
Thanks
