The processes for REWORK outlined in IPC 7711/7721 are done in order to
bring the product back into compliance with IPC-A-610D. If the inspector
is certified to 610D then they can inspect the rework.
The REPAIRS outlined in this document do not bring the product into
print compliance. Some additional material is required that is not on
the BOM or assembly drawing, such as wire jumpers, epoxy, etc. The
repair brings the product back into form, fit, and functionality, but is
still non-compliant material. Therefore review from your Materials
Review Board of the damage and inspection of the repair documented on a
non-compliant materials report should be performed. Typically you must
have MRB authority from your customer for performing repairs, and they
may request advance notification and authorization of the usage of any
particular repair procedure.

If one is IPC certified per IPC-A-610 to inspect electronic assemblies,
is one thereby recognized as competent to inspect reworked, repaired or
modified electronic assemblies (Ref: IPC-7711, IPD-7721).

Or is special inspection training required for this per IPC?

I don't know if I have asked the question properly but I would be
interested in any comments.

Thanks
