The cost of continuing education courses is deductible if they are necessary to maintain or improve skills in your current trade or business, or if they are required by your employer or by law to keep your salary, status, or job. However, they are not deductible if they are needed to meet the minimum educational requirements of your current trade or business or if they qualify you for a new trade or business.
