Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the evidence submitted under the 'prizes or awards' criterion, which consisted of academic diplomas and conference participation certificates, did not constitute nationally or internationally recognized awards for excellence.
