Why would you want one? AFAIK MS, Sun et al. only really certify
developers for two reasons:
1. It makes them money.
2. They get to brainwash developers with their clever marketing.
There's a third reason:

equates to quality and skill.
I'm actually somewhat happy that there's no such thing as a "Certified
Cocoa Developer" or "Certified Cocoa Architect" (ugh). It forces
clients and employers to actually look at individuals' skills and
potential, which is what ultimately leads to the best determination and
placement for everyone.
