Not by itself. Explain the applicant’s actual special or advanced knowledge and relevant experience.

A manual describes a process. Identify what the employee learned and applied rather than assuming access establishes expertise in everything it contains.
The regulation defines specialized knowledge by reference to the petitioning organization's product, service, research, equipment, techniques, management or other interests, or an advanced level of knowledge of its processes and procedures. Knowledge of a regeneration sequence developed inside the company, recorded in its own schedules and refined against its own field results, can support this category, but qualifying knowledge need not be proprietary or unique. Confirm as well that the employee completed one continuous qualifying year abroad during the relevant three years and that the foreign and US organizations have a qualifying parent, branch, subsidiary, or affiliate relationship while doing business. Ask who will select and explain training records, compare ordinary skill with the claimed organizational knowledge, manage confidential exhibits, and document the foreign year and qualifying relationship. A hard-to-fill position, general technical experience, or an unsupported claim that someone is indispensable does not by itself establish this category, and qualifying foreign employment remains a separate requirement.
