There are other companies doing PostgreSQL certification. SRA in Japan, and
Dalibo in France (disclaimer: I work for Dalibo) offer certification exams
for their customers.

Multiple languages would be a must, I totally agree. Dalibo did its own
certification because the community didn't seem to be able to work on a
unified one, despite many tries. I'd love to see a unified Postgres
certification, and we (Dalibo) would gladly work on this project, but I
also am kinda skeptical of the outcome.
Regards.
