I am currently employed as a mechanical maintainer (fitter) and hold a [Certificate III in Engineering - Mechanical (MEM30219)], which is a requirement for my role.
My job involves working with various mechanical systems, including pumps, crushers, drives, and motors etc.
I am considering pursuing a 'Master of Professional Engineering - Mechanical Engineering' to further my knowledge and improve my skills in these areas.
Given that this course would help me gain a deeper understanding of advanced mechanical concepts and enhance my current job performance, would the expenses related to this study be tax-deductible?
I would appreciate your guidance on whether this type of educational cost qualifies for a deduction.
Thank you for your assistance.
