To correctly manage uncertainties in protecting the public, it is critical totake long-term preventive measures by regulating mobility engineering practices in deliveringautonomous driving solutions. To date, the lack of licensure for all mobility engineers remainsone of the significant challenges. As we investigated NCEES exam products in the civilengineering domain, none of the exams are targeting the unique knowledge base and skillsrequirements for a mobility engineer profession. Without an effective mechanism to regulate thisemerging occupation, ethical practice and quality assurance of engineering projects could beundermined. In this study, we investigated the current educational programs, job market,requirements
