I don't know where you live. Where I live in the central US anyone can
set up shop to write web pages for hire without exams. However you have
to pass an exam to be a barber or a member of several trades. Things
may be different elsewhere. A degree in computer science from a
university with a good reputation would help establish one's
qualifications, but that is more training than some who write web pages
may need. You may also use the W3C validators for HTML and CSS, and if
the page fully validates, you may use a W3C icon that so indicates. Of
course a page may validate fully, but the layout or subject matter of
the page still can be an awful mess. Some vocational technical schools
that teach various computer skill subjects likely will provide some
documentation if you pass their course. But I can not think of a place
where you can go to take a test to certify that you meet certain
standards in writing certain types of web page code.
