No. It establishes a training plan, not necessarily the knowledge needed for the proposed assignment.
Describe capability accurately
Identify what the employee already knows and what remains to be learned. Do not present expected course completion as current expertise.
A qualifying relationship, one continuous year of qualifying employment abroad in the previous three years, and a U.S. position requiring specialized knowledge of the company's own process rather than general professional skill. Support the company-specific context with training or production records and let counsel assess the applicable legal standard rather than relying on a broad claim of general trade expertise. What counts is knowledge that is genuinely proprietary or advanced within the organization: an internal formulation, a method developed in-house, an unpublished protocol, a system the company built for itself. The principal separately needs a complete, uninterrupted qualifying year overseas during the relevant three-year window, properly related organizations, and company-specific special or advanced knowledge tied to the American assignment. State the standard plainly and without inflation: L-1B requires specialized knowledge, meaning special knowledge of the employer’s product, service, research, equipment, techniques, management or other interests and its application in international markets, or an advanced level of knowledge of the organization’s processes and procedures. The applicant must have been employed continuously for one year within the three preceding years by a qualifying entity abroad, in a managerial, executive or specialized knowledge capacity, and the United States role relied on specialized knowledge as defined.
