Our Story

Training broadcast journalists since 2011

LivePulseFY was founded by a group of senior Australian journalists who saw a gap between traditional media degrees and the skills demanded by modern live newsrooms.

Our Mission

Bridging the gap between study and the live newsroom

At LivePulseFY, we believe that the best broadcast journalists are made through doing — not just listening. Our programs replicate the high-stakes environment of a live newsroom, putting participants on camera, behind the control desk, and in the field from day one.

Based in Sydney with campuses in Melbourne and Brisbane, we serve early-career journalists, experienced reporters making the transition to broadcast, and newsroom teams seeking to sharpen their live-production skills.
