Hi
There are other certification bodies such as LPI. The course are cheaper
and done through tafe I think.
You may get more mileage with experience rather than courses. Try to get

Have a look at zenoss It's nagios and munin in one.
It does the alerting, threshholds, recovery actions and graphing all in
