RA-Aus Instructor Rating

Hi All

I'm currently toying with the idea of doing an RA-Aus Instructor Rating. I figure it must improve my flying somewhat and have a vague hope of using it to earn a little extra dosh to fund this addiction of mine.

I have a few questions though:
- What does the rating involve?
- Is the course something you can do 1-2 days per week over a long period or does it need to be done in an intensive block?
- What are the prospects are of being employed as an instructor if you can only work 1-1.5 days per week?
- How much does it cost to do the course?
- How do you assess if you'd be suited to instructing?

Does anyone know of airfields around Melbourne (preferably eastern suburbs or north/south eastern) that offer the rating?

Any help/advice is appreciated.

Cheers!
