I have been looking starting some sort of designation program and it seems like the SCMP would probably be the best fit. The information I have been able to find (including this brief thread) has shown pretty mixed reviews. Since the program is a pretty big financial commitment, I thought I would ask CP for their input on the designation. Is it worth it? Or are there other options that I should look into? One issue is that I do live in Lethbridge, so online coursework is pretty much my only option at the moment.
Have you asked your current employer to pay for it? Or a portion of it?
