I don't need a qualification/certificate per se, but I'd guess from your post that Australian RTOs are more likely to provide value for money?
RTO's provide recognised qualifications that adhere to a standard set by the Australian Government.

Getting a qualification from a non RTO entity means nothing. Non RTO entities do not have to meet any standard except what they deem is to be included in the course. Any certificate from a Non RTO is not worth anything, it is not a recognised qualification in Australia.
