Hello everyone,

进修休假/长假
Explanation:
In a corporate environment, staff who are qualified to have 'sabbatical leave' would take the break to carry out studies related to their usual job, hence this suggestion of 进修休假 to match the context.

Hope you find this helpful.

Two scenarios may apply


Explanation:
As sabbatical is often paid (Reference: https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/sabbatical), there are two scenarios:

1. If sabbatical is for employee's training, learning or self-development, it can be translated as: 带薪停职进修
2. if sabbatical is for personal reasons, travel or other projects: 带薪休假

https://www.insperity.com/blog/employee-sabbaticals/

Not familiar with the sabbatical concept? That’s understandable. Although they’ve been fairly commonplace in the academic and medical fields for decades, sabbaticals are relatively new to the business world. Professors and doctors are known to take extended time off to get additional training and author books or peer-reviewed articles.

Following their example, some forward-thinking companies have introduced sabbaticals as an opportunity for long-time employees to enjoy time off for personal projects that may be more long-term than their vacation time affords. Professional development, community service and travel are some of the more popular reasons for sabbaticals.)
