Hans-Dichand-Academy:
The best journalism with the best training
More "Krone" employees have successfully completed the Hans Dichand Academy - the new course is already underway in Graz.
Terror against Israel, a war of aggression against Ukraine, exploding prices in this country: because the current global political and economic crises are unsettling more and more Austrians, independent journalism is the order of the day - as a strong response to the fake news that is circulating on various social media.
"Guarantor for orientation and opinion-forming"
"Resilient media are now the only guarantor of orientation and opinion-forming," analyzes "Krone" Managing Director Gerhard Valeskini.
Second course in the bag
For this reason, the "Krone" was the first media company in Austria to launch a unique training offensive two years ago - with the Hans-Dichand-Academy. The centerpiece is the two-semester course in cooperation with the Joanneum University of Applied Sciences in Graz. Here, our employees are offered an academic education. The second course is now in the bag - another seven graduates can call themselves "academic journalists".
In times of ChatGPT and the like, good journalism is becoming increasingly important. And as part of the Hans Dichand Academy, we are learning the necessary skills for this.

"The 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 the award ceremony this week.
Modern journalistic work requires the ability to prepare content in various formats - audio, video and interactive media - and therefore demands continuous further training.

The third round of the academy was given the green light this week and eight participants are already swotting up. "The cooperation with the 'Krone' fits in very well with our university's strategy of contributing our expertise in an industry-oriented collaboration," says Martin Payer, Commercial Director of FH Joanneum.
Institute Director Heinz M. Fischer once again sees the opportunity to "discuss journalistic challenges in a rapidly changing society at a high level".
