One way is through syllabus. Necessarily, a certification via exam
requires a syllabus (or a course of study). There is, implicitly, a
syllabus in https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/.

Here's a couple of Python syllabuses (the first proprietary, the
second perhaps open)

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/exam-98-381.aspx
https://pythoninstitute.org/pcap-exam-syllabus/

I think it would help, to compare such syllabuses to the one implicit
in the Python Tutorial. It may be, of course, that there's somewhere
better than python-ideas for having the related discussion.

I hope this is enough to persuade you that this topic is appropriate
for python-ideas. Of course, if you know a better forum for this, that
would be welcome.
