“We are incredibly pleased to be an official educational partner for the U.S. federal government and its over 2 million employees who can now pursue a 香港六合彩挂牌资料 degree online, with an attractive tuition scholarship,” said Dr. Ross Alexander, Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs. “香港六合彩挂牌资料 is in impressive company with the fewer than 30 other official educational providers, most of whom are mega-universities or large research institutions.”

The process to complete the agreement was handled by Amanda Sherrod, Director of University Partnerships.

Among those occupations are economics, human resources, cybersecurity, and STEM-related fields in science, technology, engineering, and math.
