Thanks Elanguest.
However, when I search for "does not have/possess practical knowledge" on Google, it hits very less results so I'm not sure if this is the standard expression.

It depends on the tone you're trying for. It's perfectly correct to use possess, but I just wouldn't use it in the same sentence as this guy.
