Be WaryPlease be very cautious of signing up to do online courses! A lot of these courses are advertised on job search websites, or you may get called at home and be offered to sign up.
A Diploma level course can cost approx $20K online, whereas if you do the same course at a well-known provider such as Chisholm, Holmesglen, RMIT, Swinburne, VU, Melb Polytechnic etc. the cost will be at least half of that PLUS you know you are getting trained properly.
Do your research on the company - Google is wonderful for this.
Be very very wary!!!
