Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO concluded that the proffered position of 'digital design coordinator' qualifies as a specialty occupation. On de novo review, the AAO determined that the position's specific duties are so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform them is usually associated with a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, thus meeting the regulatory requirements.
