If you are a bona-fide employee of the corporation, and they make the same opportunity available to all other employees of the corporation on the same basis, yes.

If you travel directly from your home to the work site and then back, no you cannot write off the travel expenses as an employee as these are considered normal commuting expenses. The cell phone is iffy especially if you also use it for personal calls since it will be difficult to break out the totals. Not sure why you would pay for your own office supplies, but the question becomes do you spend enough to make it worth your while to claim them, do you have all your receipts, and can you actually prove that the supplies purchased are used solely for business purposes. These may also fall under the 2% exemption. Your best bet is to consult with a tax accountant (off-season would be best and possibly cheaper) and get their opinion.

No, nice try. It has to be to maintain qualifications or improve skills in the employee's current field. If it qualifies for a new field then it's not a legitimate business expense.

Employee training has to be to maintain or improve present skills, not qualify you for a new position. In that light no.
