- Do these prices include GST?
- Most providers do not say. Of 15 advertised prices for this course, 1 state whether GST is included. Confirm the final price with the provider.
How these figures are worked out
- Only providers that hold the unit on their scope of registration on the national training register (training.gov.au) are included.
- Each provider counts once, at its lowest advertised price for this course, so a provider with many sessions cannot skew the result.
- Prices come from each provider's own website. Prices more than five times or less than a fifth of the category median, and $0 fee-free-if-eligible listings, are excluded.
- Refresher, update and verification-of-competency courses are left out and shown separately, so a short refresher never reads as the price of the full course.
- Assessment-only courses (recognition of prior learning, skills assessments) are left out too: they are for people who can already do the work, so they cost less than the full course.
- 1 of 15 advertised prices say whether GST is included; the rest are shown as advertised.
- Figures update automatically as providers' prices change. This page reflects data as at November 2026.
