Hans-Dichand-Academy
The best training for the best journalism
More "Krone" employees have successfully completed the Hans-Dichand-Academy at FH Joanneum Graz this week.
When US presidential candidate Donald Trump talks about immigrants eating dogs and cats, many Europeans just shake their heads, but many Americans believe this fake news - a dangerous development. "Independent journalism and courageous media are therefore essential for the free formation of opinion and for a critical examination of relevant topics," analyzes "Krone" Managing Director Gerhard Valeskini.
Three years ago, the "Krone" was the first media company in Austria to launch a unique training offensive, the Hans-Dichand-Akademie. Its centerpiece: the two-semester course in cooperation with the Joanneum University of Applied Sciences in Graz, which offers our employees an academic education. The third course has now been completed - a further nine graduates can now call themselves "academic journalists".
"In response to AI, we will focus more than ever on human journalism, regardless of which of our channels we use. This best journalism also requires the best training - and that is exactly what we are achieving with this exemplary cooperation," praised Klaus Herrmann, Managing Editor-in-Chief of the "Kronen Zeitung", and warmly congratulated the candidates at this week's decree ceremony.
I wanted to get new ideas for the digital preparation of the National Council election campaign. For example, the podcast Superwahl was implemented.

"The cooperation with the 'Krone' is a distinction for us as a university of applied sciences, which we are very proud of," says Martin Payer, Commercial Director of FH Joanneum. "There are no imitators yet, this project is unique in the German-speaking world," says a delighted Prof. Heinz M. Fischer, head of the institute.
