I would think that you should first get some experience with Linux before you try to take any exams. Also, what is your end goal? If you want to work in some kind of IT, I would talk to employers and see what their requirements are---or just look at job postings.

Which distribution is used at work. If it is Red Hat, then you would get their certification. SuSE has their own certification program. There is also compTIA and LPI.

This link might help. It was the first one from a "linux certifications" search on Google.
