The tuition for the course may be a Lifetime Learning credit deduction but the cost of the exam is not.

If the course is to get the CFA certificate, you can get credit for it.  If the course is a prep course to take the exam, you cannot get credit for it.  And there is no credit for the cost of taking the exam itself.
