Education

No, if this was related to your military service training, this would not count as being a full time student.

 

In order for you to be considered a full time student, you would have to be at a technical school for something unrelated, that was not part of your military service, then this would count as a full time student.  If you are asking this because you are trying to determine if someone else can claim you as a dependent, then this would qualify you as a dependent for your parents if you are under 24.

 

If you are asking this for an education credit, In order to claim the credit, your school must be listed as an eligible institution with the Department of Education.  If it is listed, then assuming you  meet the rest of the criteria then you can take it.  If it is not listed, then you cannot take the Lifetime Learning Credit.
