Claiming Tax on Training

Hi All

Wondering if any one has had any success in the last few years claiming training fees as expenses on their tax returns?

I see lots of threads regarding reclaiming VAT on training which I have successfully done. However have not seen any on the tax side of things.

After obtaining my PPL(H) I continued hour building in order to go on the CPL(H) course, then passed the CPL training and started charging for my time as a profession. The tax return was put in to include all of these training expenses and a week before the deadline the Inland Revenue decided to query it.

Has anyone had any experience of this? I would be grateful for any advice / comments.

Thanks
