I am currently being urged to do a centralised C Licence by a FFA staff coach from interstate.
The cost of it is about $4200, with $3500 if one provides own accommodation. This is in Canberra.
The local C Licence only costs $1650.
The interstate FFA contact assures me that the centralised one is a vastly superior course.
There are some C Licence holders on here. Which did you do?
The centralised C Licence seems more expensive than the KNVB English language course in Zeist.

Interesting comments all round. Take your pick, OS, centralised or local. The local courses are not as stressful and you still have your family around. There are advantages and disadvantages to all. It really does not matter that much. From "B Licence" onwards it is all local and centralised.
I have all the UEFA A, B, and C licence resources and I can tell you that they do not have a strict formation theme. The SSGs, functions, phases, warm-ups etc are based on logical topics and football. They are flexible for any system. Our AFC Licence content and information is different to the other AFC Licences and UEFA Licences in that it is formation based. Is this the best model for educating coaches?
In the last correspondance for Advanced Licence holders (2009/10, up to date stuff!) the newsletter stated that a minimum licence for the highest state league competition was a C Licence until 2012. From 2013 it will be a "B Licence". Very hard to enforce but you can see the trend.
Decentric give the local C Licence a go, then see what you think!
