Heck, I've seen dive store owners just slap a sticker on there and not even open the tank.
The CGA makes the recommendation for the inspection procedures. Those are defendable in court. There is no "industry" standard for scuba cylinder inspections. Bill High confirmed this when I met with him 2 weeks ago. PSI and TDI follow the CGA recommendations. I cannot speak of the other agencies. But many home inspectors who created their own stickers were not able to defend their "standards" in court and lost. Your stickers should state that the insepction meets or exceeds CGA standards. I have used stickers from PADI, TDI, PSI, and now GUE. All say the same thing.
Like everyone else has said, get the training and stay current.
