Industrial anodizing company in Canada looking for anodizing course

I work for an anodizing company that does type II and III sulfuric anodizing. I was wondering if there is a general anodizing course I could take to broaden my knowledge on anodizing and whether or not it is available in my area.

Years ago, Sandoz/Clariant used to put on a 3 day course, I'm not sure if they still do or not. Also, every year the AAC has a conference (usually in the fall), in which there is a "101" course, along with many other more technical tracks. I'm not aware of anything in Canada, unless the AAC holds their conference there, as they have in the past.

Your best(and most affordable) bet is to invest in The Surface Treatment and Finishing of Aluminum and it's Alloys books.
