As I am sure you're aware,uk electrical qualifications are not recognised in australia, hence all the problems with getting a licence to work.So in answer to your question I doubt that uk solar training will be recognised either.

uk electrical qualifications are recognised in australia, although you will need to do an au wiring standards course to bring you up to speed on au wiriing regulations, each state has its own version / idea of what is required to be compentent in au regs so you`ll need to look at the states electrical safety office for the area where you intend living,
