You cannot receive a "double benefit" from your expenses. If you used qualified educational expenses to obtain the  American Opportunity Tax Credit, the Lifetime Learning Credit, or the Tuition and Fees Deduction, you cannot use those same expenses as a business expense or an unreimbursed employee expense.
