In the Aviation, Space & Defense Sector, we have a Recommended Practice, dealing with the subject: SAE ARP9162

Hey Sidney, do you know what changed when ARP9062 went International with ARP9162? I've got a copy of ARP9062 that I've used in the past...

Sorry, couldn't resist. Not a clue. But you can ask Mr. Dale Gordon, who is the IDR, according to the IAQG Standards Register.

I found the ARP 9162, now I am looking for "a real life" procedure that has been used to certify operators on inspecting their own work. Thanks to all!!!!!

I downloaded it, I found it unhelpful; I'd like to find a real case implementation so it can help me on my project

Re: Self inspection
I can't help with what you're asking, but I just wanted to note that ARP9162 has been cancelled and superseded by AS9162, which was published in November 2016.

Re: Self inspection
I don't have a procedure to offer, but I can offer a few tips, FWIW:
If you don't have the right culture in place, it will never work, period. If you have "leaders", Managers, Supervisors, whatever, who push for meeting "shipout dollar goals" or "manufacturing quotas" over all else it will fail, and fail miserably. You simply must have empowered employees who are competent, well-trained, and strongly supported by Management who are willing to speak truth to power and that "power" must never be allowed to penalize anyone in any fashion for reporting honestly the results of their measurements. What Management does will speak 100 times more loudly than what they say or write.
Perform periodic checks on the results of the self-inspectors to keep them on their toes and catch any problems that may arise (intentional or unintentional measurement errors). I used to do this for ALL Inspectors -- if there was any kind of measurement problem, I wanted to catch it before my customer did, and I as "boss" was double-checked periodically just like everyone else. It also gave Production and Customers a warm-fuzzy feeling about the quality of our measurements.
Have a certification log of who is allowed to perform self-inspection.
Treat self-inspectors as special -- because they are. A pay increase, maybe a perk like a quarterly catered luncheon for self-inspectors to recognize them, some in-person thanks from the big boss.
Not every measurement is appropriate for self-inspection.
