Lol yeah right.
If there's no present business need you're lucky if you get anything. This was 10+ years ago, but I got 1 week study time when I was in a satellite office and took the bar of the mothership office, which was not required of me.

You’re better off just waiting until they actually open an office there, then trying to get moved to that office, then taking the bar because that’s when they actually need you to have that license. No firm is giving you time off to take a bar just for fun in a hypothetical potential location where you may or may not have a hypothetical position.
You can just take vacation time to do it if you really want, but if you’re looking at it as making you look more desirable to your firm for that location, they probably don’t really care. They’ll just get whoever they want in that office to take it when the time is right.

No.
What about negotiating no pay for two of the weeks and using pto for the rest?
Subject Expert
No. You’ll only get your PTO.

Without them having an office there you've no leg to stand on in this request.
