WATERVILLE, MAINE, May 2023 – Thomas College is pleased to announce a partnership with the Maine Insurance Agents Association to extend graduate education to any of its 1,519 individual agent members in our state.
The Maine Insurance Agents Association (MIAA), whose mission is to represent, support and promote independent insurance agents, is partnering with Thomas College to offer generous tuition discounts for online graduate programs, with the intent to support the professional growth of insurance agents across the state who are members of MIAA.
“We are thrilled to offer another MIAA members only benefit to independent agents here in Maine.

These programs and certificates can set our members apart and assist them in accomplishing personal and professional goals.”
