    What data skills and knowledge do employers expect when recruiting? How can we help our students and researchers acquire those skills?  How does artificial intelligence (AI) impact data quality, and can technological advancements alone solve data quality issues? A panel from academia and industry – Jack Goetz (Meta Platforms), David Rothschild (Microsoft) and Rujuta Umarji (ICPSR) – will lead a lively discussion.
