Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO found that the evidence provided for having a degree or similar award was insufficient, as the training might have been on-the-job and some FAA-approved education occurred after the petition was filed.
