Unfortunately, that's what academic credentials are for.
Only, you have to take several years off your life and get into debt if you're in the U.S.
And, not every company will value your credentials anyway (if you're an MIT or Stanford graduate, sure).
Many companies, from Microsoft to Oracle/Sun have tried to generate valuable credentials, and there are always people gaming the system.
