The length of United States Marine Corps School of Infantry depends on the specific Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) that a Marine is training for. As there are many different MOS's, there are many different lengths.
No, Australia does not have a Marine Corps. This may be due to the following reasons: 1. Many Countries merged their Marine Infantry with regular Infantry years ago. 2. Australia's armed forces number less than 60,000, therefore Australia probably cannot afford to have a Marine Corps.

Many have Marines.... not a whole corps worth, though. In some countries, they're referred to as Naval Infantry.

The size of a company differs as its primary mission (Infantry, Armor, MP) as well as its branch of service (US Army or Marine). Some have only 3 platoons others may have 5 or more. A good average would be about 160 enlisted, and about 5 or 6 officers. A company is usually commanded by a captain.
Sizes vary with the structure and the structure varies depending on the needs of the mission. A Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) is the largest Building Block currently used in the Marine Corps and consists of a Marine Division, a Marine Logistics Group and a Marine Aircraft Wing. It may consist of all or any part of all three elements. Smaller missions might require only a Marine Expeditionary Brigade (MEB) centered around and an Infantry Regiment and Marine Air Group. A Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) uses an Infantry Battalion and a Marine Air Squadron as the basic building blocks and typically it will be an Infantry Battalion with the support of an Artillery Battery. It could be much larger if the mission requires more personnel, added armor or specialized equipment to accomplish the mission or to meet a specific threat.
An infantry division consists of between ten thousand and thirty thousand men.
