I'm looking at the program offered online at CITT (Canadian Institute of Traffic & Transportation) called CCLP (Certified Canadian Logistics Professional). Does anybody here have opinions or experience with this certification or an equivalent that they could share and help me make a decision on whether or not this program is a good idea for me?
I'm 40 years old, and I'm fairly new to the industry. I have almost 20 years of experience dispatching, but it was in the taxi business. A year ago, I took a part time job with a small freight broker outfit in town, and I'm starting to feel like it's time to get some education in this field. At some point I'd like to have the option of working for a larger carrier, or perhaps handling the freight arrangements for a manufacturer.
I recently met with a carrier agent/salesman who earned his CCLP last year. He had nothing but good things to say about the program, which was encouraging, but I'm looking for all the input I can get on the subject.
Thanks everybody.
Canada - Anybody familiar with CCLP Designation from CITT or Equivalent?
