Thanks for the advice everybody. I should have mentioned that I already have PADI Rescue Diver and I have a bit more dives than are listed on my profile (I'll update it now). I also should mention that part of my motivation for additional training (Dive Master or otherwise) is to get more dives in. I'm in a situation where I have more money than free time, so money spent on training doesn't mean I'm going to get in fewer "real" dives. In fact quite the opposite. My local diving opportunities are all lakes, and frankly without some goal to shoot for I don't see myself doing much local diving.
I will look into both the GUE Fundamentals course as well as the Solo Diver training. Part of my interest in Dive Master was more self-reliance which the Solo Diver training would do. And as Sh0rtBus pointed out that would also be great for diving with my daughter.
