Justification Toolkit

In today’s competitive workplace, you can’t afford to let a professional development opportunity like PSP/Deck Expo pass you by.  This event is the largest in North America serving the commercial and residential pool, spa, and outdoor living industries. You'll connect with thousands of fellow industry professionals.

We understand it can be difficult to ask for approval to attend PSP/Deck Expo, so we have created this Justification Toolkit to assist you.

There are three simple tools to help you gain funding for your attendance. When you outline the costs, benefits, and value of attending, your manager or supervisor is sure to appreciate the investment made into your training and development as well as to your company's success.
