Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of program director qualifies as a specialty occupation. Citing the Occupational Outlook Handbook, the AAO determined that a bachelor's degree is not a normal minimum requirement for producers and directors. The petitioner also failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet any of the other alternative criteria, such as an industry-wide standard or duties of sufficient complexity.
