Come on doc. That education stuff is all tax deductable and you know it. The same guy that worked on BMW's in 1957 may need some additional training in order to work on my X5. And so from year to year his lic. needs to be upgraded as well. Otherwise you would have every shade tree mechanic/doctor working without any legitimate oversight. Not good IMHO. OBTW. No training, no lic.

January of this year in order to do Electrical work in California a person must have a license. Sure there's some govt stuff behind the scenes but how would you like some jack of all trades wireing your house. I've seen their work, you do not want to go there.
