Your company has sent you to attend a course at college in different country. You have completed the course and received a certificate, but you lost it on way back. Write a letter to the principal of the college and say

– How did you lose the certificate?

– Why do you need it?

– What do you expect the principal to do?

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Aman Gupta and I work for Dell International, India. I am writing this letter to request a duplicate certificate for the ‘Business Administration’ course which I did in your college. Three months ago, my company has provided me a great opportunity to attend six months programming course in your college but I have lost precious certificate.

I completed my six-months training in application development in the first position. After getting the certificate and started packing to leave for my homeland. When I had last seen, the document was on the table in my room. I think I forgot to put it in my document file which was in the luggage.

This certificate is extremely crucial for me in order to get a promotion. Additionally, my company would compensate for the fees and travel expenses only after furnishing the course certificate. I have to submit this before appraisal and I am very much worried.

I would really appreciate if you could do me a favour by sending a duplicate copy of this certificate through courier. I am ready to pay for this. I shall be greatly thankful to you for this act of kindness.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Aman Gupta
