<br><tt><font size=2>That strikes me as kind of like asking an employer
to pay your union <br>
dues :)... not quite the best analogy but not the worst either me <br>
thinks. As to courses and seminars... depends on the situation. If
the <br>
school is has some direct benefit from some particular training I get...
<br>
then I talk to them about it and either they do or dont. Most of
these <br>
things are tax deductible and if I am not mistaken you cant mix your P's
<br>
and Q' there. If you get support... you have to declare it as income
<br>
over here and don't get to deduct that amount as an expense. Sometimes
<br>
its just not worth the bother of all the paperwork to do anything but <br>
just pay for it yourself.<br>

I have a quick question; Have any of you asked the
schools of music to<br>
reimburse part or all of your PTG dues as ongoing education?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any input...<br>
