Licensing and certification is a local matter. What you can get certified as depends partly on where you live, example
I have
Water Distribution Manager Certification - WA state only
Traffic Signal Technician - IMSA US
Control System Technician - ISA US
Master Electrician - WA state only

My recommendation to you since you are new to the US is possibly consider taking the following exams or at least study for them.

1) ICC Residential Electrical Inspector Exam
2) ICC Commercial Electrical Inspector Exam
3) ICC Electrical Plans Examiner Exam

All of which are put out by the International Code Council (www.iccsafe.org)

While you may not be venturing down the path of becoming an inspector it does help boost your knowledge of the NEC while preparing for them. Also the IAEI (international association of electrical inspectors) has a great set of exams as well for one and two family electrical inspector, general electrical inspector and electrical plans examiner exams that will help grow your knowledge as well as provide some additional certifications to place in your wallet.
