there are formal regulatory boards for most of this. Lawyers gotta pass the bar, medical folks have their own board exams, finance has things like CPA or CFP certifications, etc.
Most Mechanical / Electrical / Civil Engineers have formal accreditation processes, too.
IT is something of a clusterfuck but even there we have things like CCIE or RHEL or Windows Certs that can prove a minimum level of competency.
The lack of regulation makes it easy for anyone to be a dev but also means there is no formal minimum standard.
