I'm still working on my certification and they have paid for training and travel.
I will say this - I made far more money on staying than I expected and if it weren't for the outsourcing crap - I would be hard pressed to find anything else wrong with my job. I'm trying to make the most of it. Trust is still an issue on the long term side of things.

I got to this late and just read your original post. You made the right move in my opinion. If you can stay put for 2-3 years the whole reputation angle of this with the other place will be long forgotten. Once upon a time I jumped for a job and during the whole interview process got an odd rub from the future supervisor. I ended up being dead-on about the guy too and was miserable with him for 1 year, 3 months, 12 days, 8 hours...you get the idea...until I left.
I think anyone in their right mind would understand the commute aspect and the attraction to working at home. This isn't the 70's anymore...
Good luck!
