Update by Labnuke99:
There are certainly certifications for this and there must be a high level of ethics involved though as the skills taught can be used for damaging data, systems and reputations. <a href="http://www.eccouncil.org/">EC Council</a> has the C-EH - Certified Ethical Hacker certification. <a href="http://www.sans.org/mentor/description.php?tid=164">SANS</a> has training in Hacker Techniques, Exploits and Incident Handling. I have both Security+ and CEH. You will need good network skills and an understanding of applications to certify.

Dear Sir or Madam:
Labnuke certainly has the certifications for this kind of thing nailed: both the EC Council/CEH and the various SANS credentials are highly regarded (SANS probably more than CEH) in North America and Europe, and are gaining recognition in the PacRim as well. Also, please don’t overlook the NSA’s national centers of academic excellence, many of which include hacking related coverage in their curricula.
All this said, most real hackers earned their stripes by spending countless hours over years of relentless pursuit of source code, reverse engineering, and so forth. Certifications or not, be prepared to do likewise!

As with any field, if you’re going to be good at professional hacking, you’ve got to get some good hands-on experience. Certs – although necessary to get past the screeners – aren’t all that. You’ll learn some basics but rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands dirty using all the free tools (and even trial versions of commercial products) out there is going to help you more than anything.
