I know that the university of Alberta has an ID program. I’d talk to some of the professors there and get to know them. They may be able to offer you good advice. If possible, I’d try and enroll there for evening classes or something. I’m sure an ID degree through correspondence is possible, but quite honestly, you need human teamwork and feedback, you need shop facilities, and you need expensive software to really develop a competitive skill set. I’d forget correspondence and go to the UofAlberta program.
