The EASA part 66 aircraft maintenance licence is the world wide standard to be able to sign airplanes airworthy.
You can study at an EASA part 147 approved school for about 15000 Euro, plus accomodation, plus about 6 month no pay! But you can also study at home and the project will cost you between 1000 and 2000 Euro depending on the exam place.
You can take exams for the EASA part 66 /and equivalent licenses at approved exam places whenever you feel ready for it.
