    VMware offers certifications for different tracks (see https://www.vmware.com/education-services/certification.html).
    Anyways, I think the most common certifications are those in the "Data Center Virtualization" track, like the VCP.

    Why do you want to get certified?

    Which VMware technology/product do you want to get certified on?

    Do you have the funding (approx $3500) in place to take an authorised training class?

    Your answers will influence the paths you should consider...

    Since you brought up CCNA...

    There is a work-around to avoid the $3500 training fees. If you already have a current CCNA, you can qualify for the VCP-NV certification by submitting proof of your CCNA, and taking (and passing) the VCP-NV exam.
