Question juridique clé
Whether the course costs for the NDS in business administration are deductible as work-related continuing education expenses.
Solution extraite
Yes. The course costs are deductible continuing education expenses because they serve to meet rising demands in the taxpayer's current managerial job and are not costs for a new profession.
Motifs extraits
The taxpayer worked as a workshop manager leading about 130 employees. The business administration course strengthened skills needed for his existing management role. Nothing suggested preparation for a new higher position elsewhere; therefore the expenses were investments in the existing profession, not an education for a new one.
