ALA accredited MLIS equivalent certificate

Dear Member

I am  seeking job in US / UK ,but i heard that  for  working as a library professional in these countries should have ALA accredited Library science bachelor degree or master degree .I have BLISc From  Mahatma Gandhi University  Kottayam Kerala  and MLIS from IGNOU. I know that these courses are not accredited  by ALA  and also  ALA not accredited Library science degree  from Indian universities and organisation.

My question is their any equivalent exams  conducted by ALA for getting certification of Indian

library science  ?

Please reply

Thanking You
