BANGOR, MAINE, Aug. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Defense Finance and Accounting Service, Limestone, employees can now take courses and work toward certificates and degrees at Husson University at a discounted rate thanks to an agreement between the government organization and the educational institution.
The partnership allows those who work at DFAS Limestone a tuition discount on courses toward undergraduate degrees, master’s degrees, certificates, customized education and internships.
“We’re thrilled to champion the higher education and continuing education of Maine’s workforce. We have a long history of supporting the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in Limestone with accounting and business classes.
