Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'capacity building and information infrastructure manager' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the position did not meet the criterion of normally requiring a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty for entry, referencing the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook for 'Logisticians' which indicates that an associate's degree or a general business degree could suffice.
