Are any Microsoft certifications well aligned with Unity VR development?

Greetings.

I’m a competent (hopefully ^^) IT developer and have recently gotten an opportunity to pursue any Microsoft Certification for work. VR development has always been a passion of mine and while I’m working through Unity in my spare time, I don’t yet know if there are any C# skills which would strongly correlate with the Development of a VR game in unity (using C#).

Does anyone know if any of the current Microsoft certifications would be relevant to C#/Unity coding/design or if there are more appropriate forums in which I should be asking this sort of question?

Regards,
Joshua.

C# in general is, of course, used in Unity, and any training you get in that will give you a big leg up when you start learning Unity. I don’t know the MS certifications specifically, but any C# training that focuses more on the language (syntax, techniques) than the API (e.g. the specific classes in .NET) would be most helpful. (While most of those .NET classes are available in Unity, that API is usually used as a second-class citizen for gaming purposes. e.g. Unity’s Time class is better for gaming purposes than .NET’s DateTime class.)
