Read Publication 508 Tax Benefits for Work Related Education
"The education maintains or improves skills needed in your present
work" However, "education that relates to work you may enter or
return to in the future is not qualifying education."
Unqualified education is education that will help you obtain a new
trade. So if you already a systems person, and your employer has not
reimbursed you for your education, you can deduct these expenses.
Deductible expenses
Tuition, books, supplies, lab fees, transportation, etc....
Read the entire publication. BTW, IANATAXL.
