The other reply refers to claiming education costs as a job expense. That is no longer allowed (starting in 2018) for W-2 employees (it was only an itemized deductions subject to the 2% of AGI threshold , even in the "old days"). The self employed can still take a direct job expense deduction.
But, f the courses were provided by an "eligible institution"** , you can claim either the Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC) or Tuition and Fees Deduction (TFD). Turbotax (TT) will select the best one, for you.
In TurboTax (TT), enter at:
Federal Taxes Tab (Personal for H&B version)

**To be eligible for the tuition credits or tuition & fees deduction, the course must be taken at "an eligible institution". The school should be able to tell you if it is an eligible educational institution. In general, an eligible educational institution is an accredited college, university, vocational school, or other postsecondary educational institution, including accredited, public, nonprofit, and proprietary (privately-owned, profit-making) postsecondary institutions. Additionally, in order to be an eligible educational institution, the school must be eligible to participate in a student aid program administered by the Department of Education. If they issue a 1098-T they are probably an eligible institution.
Enter your school at the link below, to see if it's on the dept. of education list.

Rule of thumb: if you have to ask, your school is not an eligible institution.
