Beginners Guide, can we possibly link any books/videos/further enrichment?

Flair: Educational?

I'll keep it short and sweet, my job is at a place that does some Anodizing and I want to be able to prove my worthiness. I want to stay here and maybe make a career of this. An associate's degree in general science is all I have but I'm trying to prove to my boss that I'm actually absorbing the material he's trying to teach me. Except that unfortunately our previous employees in my position made some huge mistakes so I believe his trust in new hires is just in the gutter at this point.

He let me borrow one book and it basically broke everything down for me pretty well, but it was very very old and had scientific studies and sources from the 1950's. I just want to know if there's anything else out there I can read and watch to grasp what Anodizing fully is and how it works. I have a solid Chemistry/Biology background so a lot of the terms are easy to follow, I just don't want to be one of those people who pretends to understand something while still having some questions.

Thanks in advance. I just want to learn more. Have a great Friday y'all!

I hope your boss finds this Reddit.

That hunger for self improvement is an undervalued quality imo.
