It depends. The requirements for being able to utilize the Lifetime Learning Credit are that expenses are for higher education, meaning that the student must already have a high school diploma or GED.
So, if the diploma you received was to obtain a high school diploma or GED, then, no, those courses would not count as education expenses.
But, if you enrolled in an education program to obtain a diploma for a program that was part of a post-secondary degree program or to acquire or improve job skills, then those expenses may qualify.
