I assume your question is asking about obtaining the most suitable diploma in Computing , however, not knowing your skill/knowledge level relating to computers, it's hard to advise you.
Geography plays a major part in this, so as an example, throughout Europe there is a ECDL (European Computer Driving Licence) - this is an entry-level intro to computers (beginner to advanced), Its main focus is on Microsoft products. If this isn't suitable, there are bound to be similar opportunities locally - perhaps at a technical school or college.
There are many different vendor-certifications out there, if you want to try personal study - remember these courses are not meant to be easy - you are required to pay for the exams - can be expensive. There are loads of free web-based self-study courses on hardware, software or on programming (phew - just pick a language - I like c++ and Java!). The paid courses on the net are aimed purely at getting you through the exam and can be REALLY expensive (you might still have to pay for exams)
I see someone has already mentioned Cisco [CCNA] as a vendor certification - this is focussed on the (Cisco) hardware side, whereas something like Microsoft [MCP] is aimed more at the (MS-operating systems) software side. There are pros and cons for each, though given the popularity of the products that these two certs deal with, there is certainly a world-wide market for certified, experienced staff.
I would suggest you gain experience using and developing the range of skills you have. If you can, start now by offering those skills free to a charitable or similar organisation. This would help you to see what is available, what is needed and (more importantly) what particular aspect of the computing world YOU enjoy.
Best of luck ;-)

CISCO
Any CISCO qualification is recognised and taught in 160 countries through academies (so you can learn in your native language, too).
