Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an elementary school teacher, failed to establish that the proposed benefit of her work would be national in scope. The director found that while the petitioner qualifies as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, she did not demonstrate that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest, specifically citing the lack of national scope for her work.
