Hey {{first_name}} ,
At most companies, learning and development budgets reset on January 1. Whatever you don’t use this year usually doesn’t roll over, and it doesn’t show up in your paycheck either. It just disappears.
If you have money left in your 2026 budget, use it on your own growth while you still can.
A Tech Ladies Pro membership counts as professional development at most companies. The annual plan is $250 a year, which works out to two months free compared with paying monthly. It includes:
An all-access event pass: free entry to every Tech Ladies event, in person and virtual, plus priority access when events fill up
Weekly group career coaching sessions
A private Slack community of emerging women leaders in tech
A members-only job board with even more opportunities
Our full webinar library, with hundreds of recorded workshops
