Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'business process improvement specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that requiring a general-purpose bachelor's degree, such as in business administration, is insufficient to demonstrate that the position requires a body of highly specialized knowledge in a specific specialty.
