Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a special education teacher, failed to establish that the benefits of his work would be national in scope. The petitioner's proposal for a national foundation was not in existence at the time of filing and subsequent evidence did not demonstrate a national impact or influence on the field of special education as a whole.
