Truck driver schools and other vocational schools are eligible for the AOTC. If you were half time or more and the school awarded a degree, certificate or other credential, upon completion, then you are eligible for the American opportunity tax credit (AOTC). Otherwise, you may be able to take the less generous Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC)
And, as already mentioned, the school must be an eligible institution. Most eligible institutions will issue IRS form 1098-T. But, you'll have to ask your school if you will be getting one.
