QantasLink Recruitment: Attention)
Only certain approved courses can be completed GST free...pretty sure this one wouldn't be approved as one. Therefore $18,000 incl GST (10%) is $19,800 or, with the breakdowns listed above, $17,600 + $2,200 (I assume QLink aren't going to cover the GST for the trainee's contribution...).
