You can always start reading the mantainer guide. There is so much chores you can take.
I actually started reading The Guide for Debian Maintainers but I do not have time right now to dedicate to it. I would like to write how-to articles on the debian wiki though.

But in turn you can become a debian mantainer and debian developer and request a certification that prove you are If It's really important for you.

One day I might be a debian maintainer. My programming skills are mediocre and I mostly just do scripting.

In a quick search, the only "third party" offerings are for generic (for
all distributions of) Linux systems administration.

Red Hat, being the most commercialised version of Linux (Microsoft
Linux?), offers its Red Hat Certifications, Oracle Linux certifications
are available, and, otherwise, apparently, Linux systems administration
certifications are all-encompassing; covering (supposedly) all
distributions of Linux.

I have CompTIA Linux+ and LPI Linux Essentials Certifications. I was hoping there was a Debian specific certification. I am not interested in Oracle or Red Hat. I know SUSE has some certifications. It looks like I will be going for LPIC-1 next then.
