>Looking to build a path towards certification in .NET, either VB or C#. Jury is still out on which one I will ultimately end-up going for. Any suggestions on the best way to pursue that?


Pursue certification in the language you choose to use. You've got the cart before the horse. Pick whichever language feels more comfortable to you and apply yourself to it. Then worry about certification. It's an outcome, not a choice of direction.
