PAGEONE Group Celebrates Graduation Of Interns As Future Leaders Of Communication And Journalism

PAGEONE Group proudly held its second Internship Graduation Ceremony, celebrating the creativity, dedication, and resilience of its interns who completed a journey filled with challenges, growth, and meaningful accomplishments.

This year’s batch of interns came from prestigious institutions including Far Eastern University, Cavite State University, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, and Lyceum of the Philippines University Manila, reflecting the diverse talents and backgrounds represented in the program.

The program, created under the Campaigns Academy, was designed to provide interns with real-life experience, help them explore their career paths, and give them opportunities to contribute to actual campaigns, projects they can be proud of and experiences they will carry with them long after the internship ends.

The graduation marks the culmination of a rigorous internship program that provided aspiring professionals with hands-on experience in media, public relations, and communications. Through this program, interns discovered their strengths, gained real-world exposure, and contributed to campaigns that left a lasting impact on the organization while building the foundations for their future careers.

Dr. Ron Jabal, APR, Chairman and CEO of PAGEONE Group, shared words of encouragement for the graduates:
“We’re really thankful that you have joined us, and we want to express our gratitude for spending three to four months of your time with us. Not everyone is given the opportunity to experience this kind of learning. You just need to have the power to dream big and the will to act on it. You are the only ones who can fulfill those dreams. Everything you have done here, every experience, is part of your journey toward achieving them. Dapat may pangarap, kahit munting pangarap o malaking pangarap. Ang importante, merong pangarap. Hindi madali magtrabaho, pero masaya. Truly, the work you’ve done here is not just intern work; it contributes to the accomplishments of our organization and our clients. We wish you well. There will be many challenges that will come your way. You just need to overcome all of them because you can and have the power to transform these challenges to learning and opportunities.”

Highlighting the impact of the program, Mars Lyndon Navarro shared, “Never niyo pinaramdam na ‘intern lang’ kami. You respected my output and treated me like a real part of the team, and sobrang laki ng bagay nun para sa confidence ko. Thank you for guiding us, for your patience, and for the warm welcome even when everyone was busy. We are leaving here with so much creative grit and happy memories.”

Crischa Comighod expressed her gratitude and growth: “Ang lugar na to has been our home for almost three months, and really, it has been nothing but great. The trust and confidence our supervisors placed on us, together with all their lessons, have shaped our internship experience in ways we will never forget. The people here made us feel included, supported, and inspired. This experience will always have a special place in our hearts.”

Julianne Borje, Internal Communications Lead at PAGEONE Group, emphasized the growth and readiness of the interns: “We wanted to give you real-life experience. Not just theories, not just classroom concepts, but the actual pace, culture, and challenges of the industry you are aspiring to be part of. Your journey is just beginning, and you are more than ready. Congratulations, interns, and thank you for allowing us to be part of your beginning.”

The ceremony concluded with the awarding of certificates to the interns, symbolizing months of dedication, collaboration, and creative contribution. The celebration reflected PAGEONE Group’s continued commitment to nurturing the next generation of professionals and shaping the future of the communications industry.

PAGEONE Group remains steadfast in its mission to provide transformative experiences that inspire young professionals to dream bigger, aim higher, and pursue meaningful careers with courage, purpose, and heart.
