Classes through the partnership will be available on a schedule convenient for GF employees, and enabled through the company's tuition education reimbursement program.

"Malta-based GLOBALFOUNDRIES employees have the option to choose between two degrees offered through the training partnership: a Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology A.A.S. from Hudson Valley or an Electrical Technology A.A.S. from Fulton-Montgomery.
