Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the director incorrectly denied the petition based on the job's lack of a specific degree field requirement. The AAO found that the director relied on outdated case law, clarifying that the current regulation defines a profession as requiring a bachelor's degree for entry without mandating that the degree be in a specific or related field.
