Good luck with the search. As you want formal protocols, you might be disappointed by the amount of nausea they may specify. The following may no longer be current, and it's solely based on recollections.
If you operate in a regulated environment, you should find the appropriate training/skill requirements, and create a simple training regime to demonstrate staff that staff using items meet those requirements. Volumetric glassware is usually done in the first week or two in a laboratory. All laboratory training programmes in regulatory environments should document the 3S stages - Shown, Supervised, Solo.
To create the training programme in the absence of industry guidance, you probably would need to review the ASTM documents, but akind glassware supplier might have simple summaries available, as Kimble used to have in their glassware catalogues.
The default detailed starting protocol for general labs used to be the methods defined by the American Society for Testing and Materials ( ASTM ) in their standards and specifications.
ASTM E 542 Standard practice for Calibration of Laboratory Volumetric Apparatus.
Then you have to review the specific specifications for the particular glassware, which should be on the equipment. the most general was:-
ASTM E694 Standard Specification for Laboratory Glass Volumetric apparatus,
However there are a range of others, E1154 Pipettors, E1157 Reusable Laboratory Glasware, E969 Transfer pipettes, E1293 Measuing Pipettes etc etc.
It's a long time ago since I had to do this, and the above mayno longer be best practice.
Please keep having fun,
