The course was three weeks long and I could not work during this time. So can I deduct my hourly wage times the hours spent on the course plus the cost of the course.
No, you cannot deduct your own time or the "lost" income. You can only deduct the cost of the course.
In fact, the reason you cannot deduct the "lost" income is because you did not earn that income and did not have to report it to be taxed.
