Artificial Intelligence for Legal Leaders is a five-week, live online executive education program designed for experienced legal professionals navigating the opportunities, risks, and responsibilities of generative AI in law.
Led by Georgetown Law faculty Jonah Perlin and Daniel Wilf-Townsend, the program provides both a technical grounding in generative AI and a deep dive into the evolving legal, ethical, and practical considerations of its use in legal practice. Participants will explore how generative AI is reshaping legal research, writing, contract review, case management, discovery, and courtroom procedures while also confronting the regulatory, ethical, and governance challenges these tools present.
Through interactive discussions, real-world examples, and expert-led modules, participants will examine how generative AI is influencing judicial decision-making, court administration, and access to justice, and will leave with a clear framework for integrating AI tools responsibly and strategically into their organizations.
As the nonprofit sector continues to grow in complexity and global reach, legal professionals working in or alongside mission-driven organizations must understand the legal, governance, and operational frameworks that shape nonprofit work. This five-week online program provides a comprehensive introduction to the legal foundations of nonprofit organizations and the evolving role lawyers play within them.
Through a combination of live, instructor-led online sessions, practical case studies, and applied discussion, participants will examine how nonprofits are formed, governed, and regulated. The program also explores the real-world legal and strategic challenges nonprofit leaders face, highlighting how skills developed in government, international organizations, or private practice can translate to effective nonprofit leadership and advising.
Whether advising nonprofit clients, supporting organizational operations, or exploring a transition into mission-driven work, this program equips participants with the legal insight, strategic perspective, and practical tools needed to navigate the nonprofit sector with clarity and confidence.
The Private Foundation Summit (PFS) will once again be hosted by Georgetown Law in 2026 in our newly renovated Hart Auditorium on the Georgetown Law campus. Continuing the tradition established when the Summit was founded in Seattle in 2009, this year’s program provides participants with valuable opportunities to network and gain front-row insights from leading experts as they explore the evolving regulatory landscape and operational challenges facing private foundations today.
The 2026 Conference on Representing & Managing Tax-Exempt Organizations (TEO), a premier annual event presented by Georgetown Law, continues a more than 40-year tradition of delivering cutting-edge education to leaders, advisors, and professionals in the nonprofit and tax-exempt sector.
As tax-exempt organizations confront increasingly complex tax laws, regulatory requirements, and legal challenges, the TEO conference serves as a vital forum for staying current with the latest developments. Attendees will hear directly from some of the nation’s foremost experts, including practitioners, scholars, and government officials who shape the policies and practices affecting nonprofit governance and compliance. Take advantage of an unparalleled opportunity to network and learn with colleagues from hundreds of other organizations.
