Decision Summary
The AAO found that the Program Director position at an adult day care center qualifies as a specialty occupation, contrary to the director's initial denial. Citing California state regulations and labor market data, the AAO determined that a specific bachelor's degree is required for the role. The case was remanded for the director to determine if the beneficiary is qualified, specifically whether she possesses the necessary state occupational therapy license to perform the job duties.
