Microsoft has its MCSE (Minesweeper Consultant and Solitaire Expert) but
correct me if I'm wrong people it has been my exeperience that
certifications in UNIX shops matters a lot less than what you *really*
know as opposed to a figure on a standardized exam.

Any company with a large investment in UNIX tends to have very savvy
people who are more proficient at sizing you up than simply taking a
certification at face value.

My 2 cents on the subject,
