You did not disclose where you live. Maybe that would help people
coming up with better suggestions.
The way I'd probably do it: for the knowledge, if you have the time,
start a toy project with a database at home. Do all the things that are
necessary, installation, maintenance, backup, recovery, tuning. That
might not get you a job but probably makes yourself more confident.
Regarding the job, if you are lucky you might find a company which lets
you work, maybe as junior DBA, and learn there. If the culture where
you live is more focused on certificates you might have to take a course
with one of the well recognized institutions. For me often learning on
a job is more effective - but you need an employer who is ready to
provide the resources (IT and time).
Kind regards
