About GradJourno

The path from university student to employed graduate is littered with generic advice and missed internships. We find this… unacceptable. GradJourno was built on a simple, brutal premise: your potential is worthless if you cannot present it. We offer no fluff, no empty promises.

Only a proven system for building an undeniable professional brand, a portfolio packed with real work experience and the confidence to negotiate your worth. We prepare you for your career before graduation because waiting is a losing strategy.

Our Story

GradJourno was founded with a simple mission:

to help aspiring university students to build their brands and the skills they need it. 

How We Started

GradJourno began when a group of industry professionals identified a critical gap: talented graduates were struggling to find employment in their fields despite their qualifications. We recognised that every industry needs skilled employees. 

Our program was designed to help graduates leverage their specialised knowledge and transform it into valuable content creation skills. Rather than letting their degrees go unused, we empower them to become industry-specific.

Where We Are Today

Today, our certified graduates are working as content creators and digital journalists across diverse industries. Each has built an impressive portfolio that showcases their specialized knowledge and storytelling abilities to employers and clients.

Our training programs have evolved to meet the changing demands of digital media, and our network of industry partners continues to grow. We’re proud that our graduates are now creating impactful content for leading companies, bringing their unique industry insights to audiences worldwide.
