About

What Proxiyum Is

Proxiyum is an independent guide to online courses and career upskilling for Australians. We answer one question, honestly: which course is actually worth your money?

Every comparison on this site is priced in Australian dollars, checked against what Australian employers and training bodies actually recognise, and written without fear or favour — if a popular course isn’t worth it, we say so.

What We Cover

  • Head-to-head course comparisons — platforms and providers compared on price (AUD), duration, recognition and real student outcomes.
  • Career-switch playbooks — step-by-step pathways into in-demand Australian occupations, with SEEK demand data and honest timelines.
  • TAFE, RTOs and funding explained — Free TAFE, Smart and Skilled, VET Student Loans and how to verify a provider through ASQA.
  • “Is it worth it?” ROI verdicts — per-qualification cost-vs-outcome breakdowns, including when the answer is “don’t do this — do that instead”.

How We Make Money

Proxiyum is reader-supported. When you enrol through some of the links on this site, we may earn a commission from the course provider — at no extra cost to you. Our verdicts stay independent: a commission never buys a good review. Read our full Affiliate Disclosure.

Our Promise

Prices in AUD. Dates on every price we quote. Verdicts you can act on. If we get something wrong, tell us — we’ll fix it and say so.
