I am a nurse practitioner advancing my degree to a doctorate.  This degree is in addition to my current degree and certifications and advances my current work with this additional education.  May I deduct the tuition?  Can it be evaluated as a continuing education class?

    It sounds like this would qualify for the Lifelong Learning Credit or Tuition and Fees deduction.  See What Is the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit?
