Guest craigkimbo Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 After getting references sent from the UK pictures and writing up my work experience. They have told me today that if i get recognized for the full qualification it would cost me 14500 dollars and it would be extra for every hours training i require. I feel like im in front of another Australian brick wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
