Jeffrey Schneider Joins EqualAI Panel on Preparing an AI-Ready Workforce

How do we prepare students, workers, and employers for an economy shaped by AI?

That was the question at the center of “Preparing America for the AI Economy,” a national summit on AI literacy and governance hosted by EqualAI and the Georgetown Law Tech Institute at Georgetown University Law Center on September 15, 2026.

Nolan Heimann Partner Jeffrey Schneider, who also serves as Executive Director of the Center for Sports, Entertainment, Media & Technology Law at USC Gould School of Law, joined the panel “Preparing an AI-Ready Workforce.” He was joined by Taylor Stockton, Chief Innovation Officer at the U.S. Department of Labor; Judith Spitz, Ph.D., Founder and CEO of Break Through Tech; and Pat Yongpradit of Microsoft. Stefan Weitz, Co-Founder and CEO of HumanX, moderated.

The panel discussed concrete ways to redesign education and workforce systems so they meet the needs of the next decade instead of the last. Watch Jeffrey’s segment below.
