A listed qualification is not a requirement, and it is not advice to enrol. Course cost and availability change by state and by intake, so check what is actually on offer before you commit to anything. Fee-Free TAFE places are listed at dewr.gov.au/skills-reform/free-tafe and course and occupation information at yourcareer.gov.au.
