The rule for training courses is that it doesn't count as a personal benefit, as long as it's training that you need in order to continue to perform your current work, but not if it's to help you get a different work. There's a bit of leeway allowed: e.g. if you mainly do SQL Server DBA, and you're talking about Oracle training, you'll be OK because that's still relevant to "DBA" or "IT Consultant" or whatever you call yourselt. But if you're talking about lion taming training, you should pay tax on the value of the benefit. You'd sort that out on your annual P11d.
Can I recover the VAT? I'm on the FRV scheme.

Paying for training....
Newbie question here I'm afraid. I need to undertake some training at a cost of approx £390.
I shouldn't really be paying myself a dividend for the next few months, but could do with using cash in my Business Account to ease cahflow. So, can I pay for this from my BMM account and be kosher with HMRC - how would I represent this? Can I recover the VAT? I'm on the FRV scheme. I am guessing no - but worth asking the Q.
