Applied Scholastics International is
a secular nonprofit public benefit
corporation that addresses head-on the
problem of illiteracy by making broadly
available L. Ron Hubbards discoveries
in the field of education and literacy.
Mr. Hubbard recognized the deep
effects on society of lowered education
standards and literacy levels, observing
that the illiterate or functionally illiterate,
denied work and opportunity, often
fall prey to criminality, vice or drugs.
Thus, he embarked on an examination
of the subject of study and isolated
the precise causes for the success or
failure of any activity or study.
So fundamental were his discoveries to
the field of education, he released them
for broad use.
Applied Scholastics has been
dedicated for more than four decades
to making these solutions to learningand literacy available internationally.
Applied Scholastics is a fully
independent, nondenominational
organization supported by the Church
of Scientology and by Scientologists
dedicated to raising educational
standards throughout the world.
Applied Scholastics recognizes that
the world will one day rest in the hands
of todays children, and that how well
they are equipped to carry this society
forward depends on how well they are
educated.
Ensuring quality education for todays
students to ensure a brighter future for
all is the mission of Applied Scholastics.

The United States Department of
Education reports that every year, one
in three high school studentsmore
than 1.2 milliondrop out. Other
industrialized nations suffer the same
plaguedropout rates average nearly
15 percent in Europe.
Some 30 million American adultsscore at Below Basic in rudimentary
language skills, and 60 million more
can perform only the simplest everyday
tasks involving words and numbers.
Studies show that illiteracy is a key
factor in crime. An estimated 60 percent
of adult prisoners are functionally or
marginally illiterate and 85 percent
of juvenile offenders are deficient in
reading, writing and basic math.
The cost of this crisis to government,
businesses and taxpayers runs in the
trillions of dollars. The cost in human
terms is incalculable.
In much of the world, the crisis is even
deeper, with broad access to education
nonexistent. Some 80 percent of the
113 million children who do not attend
school are barred from doing so by
poverty and internal wars. Insub-Saharan Africa, Southern and
Western Asia, the Arab States and
North Africa, school nonattendance
ranges from 24 to 40 percent of
school-age children.
Is it possible to rescue failing or
inaccessible education systems and
bring hope to the 1 billion illiterate
people worldwide? Is it possible to
enable individuals to achieve literacyand competence and thus contribute to
the life and culture of our society?
The answer is yes, and it lies in the
breakthrough discoveries of
L. Ron Hubbard and making them
globally available through the efforts of
Applied Scholastics International.
Education in the fullest sense of the
word is the goal of Applied Scholastics.
The aim is not only to help students
resolve study difficulties and overcome
barriers, but to enable them to become
self-sufficient, independent learners
who can be responsible for their own
lifelong learning and education.

Mr. Hubbard described the scope of
meeting the educational challenge:
The end and goal of any
society as it addresses the
problem of education is to
raise the ability, the initiative
and the cultural level, and with
all of these the survival level of
that society.
In the 1960s, Mr. Hubbard
released a series of lectures
on his research into the broadsubject of how to study and
learn. So universal was the
application of his discoveries,
the information was soon in use
in Scientology organizations.
It was implemented by teachers in
secular classrooms as well, with
measurable improvement reported
in students learning ability. In 1971,
a classroom teacher formed the first
educational organization specializing in
the use of Study Technology.
Applied Scholastics was founded
in Los Angeles the following year,
dedicated to working with governments
and schools worldwide in the broad
implementation of this technology.
For more than three decades, the
introduction of Study Technology intoschools and universities was largely a
grass-roots effort initiated by educators
united under the Applied Scholastics
banner. Today, Applied Scholastics
is a worldwide network of schools,
programs and tutoring groups.
In 2003, to meet the international
demand for Study Technology, Applied
Scholastics opened a residential
campus at Spanish Lake near St. Louis,
Missouri. This 100-acre training center,just two miles from the confluence of
the Mississippi and Missouri rivers,
is the international headquarters of
Applied Scholastics and the first
college of Study Technology.

What isStudy Technology?In his
research of the subject, Mr. Hubbard
discovered that the main impedimentto a students ability to retain and
effectively use data was the absence
of a technology ofhowto study. This
included his discovery of what are
known as the three barriers to study.
Study Technology, or Study Tech as it is
commonly called, includes the precise
methods to overcome these barriers.
The primary barriers are:
Lack of Mass (Physical Object)of What is Being Studied
If one is attempting to understand
the function and operation of a car
or a computer or a solar system, the
printed page and spoken word are no
substitute for the object itself. Lackingthe object associated with a word can
inhibit all understanding. If the mass of
a subject is absent, the student will feel
squashed, bent, sort of spinny, sort of
dead, or bored.
Too Steep a Study Gradient
When the student has not mastered
prior skills before proceeding to more
complicated or detailed steps, the
student may feel a sort of confusionor
afeeling of reeling(moving or swaying
as if they might fall). This barrier to study
is often referred to as missed basic
skills or insufficient basic skills.

A Word Not Understood
or Wrongly Understood
The third and most important barrier
is the misunderstood word. A
misunderstood word is a word which
is not understoodor a word which
is wronglyunderstood. All becomes
distinctly blank beyond a word not
understood or wrongly understood. It
can result in the student feeling blank
or washed out, not there, and a sort
of a nervous upset feeling can follow
after that.
Teachers and administrators from public
and private schools, tutors, corporate
business trainers and educational
consultants from around the world
come to Applied Scholastics at Spanish
Lake for training in Study Technology.
Residential and daytime professionaltraining are available, with many
courses offered for postgraduate and
continuing education credits.
Spanish Lake also offers a full schedule
of courses and workshops on specific
aspects of Study Technology as well
as studies in techniques that enable
students to become more accountable,
self-directed and self-advocating.
Applied Scholastics has trained over
135,000 educators from 42 nations
who, in turn, have brought Study
Technology to mill ions of colleagues
and students.

in major urban centers around the
United States. Licensed to use
Applied Scholastics educational
services and materials, all Delphi
schools operate on a standardizedcurriculum, common teaching and
administrative methods, and a
comprehensive curriculum training
program. Since the inception of the
Delphi curriculum in 1975, it has
emphasized application in the world
beyond the classroom, with the aim
being to help students of any age
take on life.
The first Applied Scholastics
school in EnglandGreenfieldsSchool in Sussexwas established
in 1981. A day and boarding school
located on 11 acres of woodland in
the Ashdown Forest, Greenfields
teaches students from preschool
to university entrance levels. After
a thorough grounding in Study
Technology, they receive a traditional
English education. In addition to
Greenfields, more than 60 tutoring
centers have been established
throughout the country, with others
opened in Scotland.
Denmarks first Applied Scholastics
school was established in 1985.
Today, government-funded schools
and a network of private tutoring
centers operate across the nation,
providing students with effective
tools for lifelong learning
using Study Technology.
In Italy, a group of
teachers formed the
first Applied Scholasticsschool center in 1978.
This has grown to 30
groups throughout
the country, including
schools, Study
Technology centers and
tutoring groups. In 2005,
the Ministry of Education
approved a pilot course on Study
Technology for delivery to Italian
teachers as part of their continuing
education.
Befitting 21st-century learning, the
Applied Scholastics Online Academy
delivers home school instruction
for preschool through high school.
Students graduate knowing how to
learn, research and evaluate data.
The Applied Scholastics Online
diploma is recognized by universities
around the world.

one year, Applied Scholastics SES
tutors delivered over 8,500 tutoring
hours in 50 schools across 36
school districts, and the program has
steadily expanded since its launch.
The Applied Scholastics AchievementProgram (ASAP) is a comprehensive
academic acceleration program that
turns underperformers into achievers.
It uses the tools of Study Technology in
an integrated approach that identifies a
students skill level and advances him or
her from that point.
The Hollywood Education and Literacy
Project (H.E.L.P.) started in 1997 with a
single center in Hollywood, California,
and has grown to a worldwide network.Tutors are trained extensively in the
use of Study Technology, and the
H.E.L.P. lineup of study is precisely
laid out to take students of any
age and level of English proficiency
to higher levels of learning.
In recognition of its successfulmentoring and tutoring programs,
H.E.L.P.s Hollywood center has
received funding from the
State of Californias Youth
Mentoring Initiative, which
has enabled it to provide
services to community youth
and adults at no charge.
Volunteers serve a wide range
of needs in the mentoring and
tutoring centers. Students areassisted with their homework,
illiterate adults are taught to
read and school dropouts
may earn a diploma.
Applied Scholastics tutors have also
actively and successfully taught English
as a second language to thousands
of learners throughout the world for
the past 15 years. In towns and cities
across the United States, Europe and
Asia, Applied Scholastics ESL programshave been implemented in community
centers, churches, workplaces,
institutions of higher learning and
teacher training programs in particular.

Worl Literac Crusae (WLC) isa rass-roots literac oveetfoue a ier-cit iister i
respose to the civil isturacesthat shook Los Aeles i 1992.
Recognizing the relationship between
illiteracy, drugs and crime, the minister
challenged local leaders, parents, youth
and educators to change conditions
in their neighborhoods. He forged
alliances between volunteers trained in
Study Technology and organizations
addressing the issues of drugs and
crime, making major inroads into gangs
through literacy training.
Today, World Literacy Crusade operates
programs in schools, community
tutoring centers and juvenile detention
facilities. It has grown
into an international
movement, with
volunteers from
lands as far-flung as
Australia, Greece
and Africa providing
individuals with
the basic tools to
become literate,
responsible,
self-sufficient and
employable.
After completing the literacy program,
87 percent of teens involved in gangs
and drug use made the decision
to relinquish their former lifestyle
and embark on a productive and
ethical path.
Parents tell the story:
My son has been doing better in
school. His reading has improved
and so has his self-esteem. I am
grateful for the program because
he sees other students working and
trying to improve too. He enjoys
going to the program, and comeshome and shares with his father and
me all the things he does and plans
to do. Thank you.
World Literacy Crusade Program
has built up my sons self-esteem,
taught him to set goals and how
to accomplish those goals. I have
a better relationship with him at
home. Communication between
us has opened up. He has become
responsible for his actions and
understands that we care. This
has given him the desire to want
to help other children with their
reading skills.

One such project started in Haiti when
an Applied Scholastics educator from
the Clearwater Academy in Florida
volunteered in Haiti after the 2010
earthquake. She gave a lecture on
Study Technology to over 400 parentsand students, and as a result the
director of an orphanage and school
in Haiti came to Clearwater for training
in Study Technology. Clearwater
Academy raised the funds to transformthe school from a tarp, straw and
sticks area to a brick building with
a solid roof, and a new school was
born, with all students learning Study
Technology.
In another outreach undertaking,
Applied Scholastics educators from
the United Kingdom delivered Study
Technology seminars in the Ukraine in
2008. To meet the demand generated,
tutoring centers were started and today
permanent centers give some 300
Study Technology lectures each year
to students and teachers in schools
across the country. The lectures have
been adopted as part of the curriculum
for the state schools in the Babushkin
District, and Applied Scholastics
partners on educational projects
with the Ministry of Family and Youth
Affairs in one of the largest cities in the
Ukraine.In yet another part of the world,
Applied Scholastics educators
have brought Study Technology to
Bangladesh, where half the population
cannot read or write. The educators
formed a Bangladesh Study Group and
soon implemented Study Technology
in three schools. After they conducted
seminars of more than 100 students
and faculty members at Jahangirnagar
University in Dhaka, the mayor of
Dhaka proclaimed Study Technology
as the solution to the nations illiteracy
problem and formally requested its
implementation in every school.
Starting in 1975, Scientologists
in South Africa, under the banner
of Education Alive, delivered
lectures, courses and workshops

in Study Technology. They have
now trained more than 20,000
teachers who have in turn brought
Study Technology to millions of
children throughout South Africa.
Study Technology has also been
exported to Zimbabwewhere 18,000
teachers have been trainedand
to Ghana, The Gambia and Sierra
Leone. Education Alive now has offices
throughout South Africa, Nigeria,
Kenya, Mali, Ethiopia and Botswana.
In the Philippines, secondary
school dropout rates ran as high
as 30 percent, with a 75 percent
illiteracy rate in elementary schools.
In response, Applied Scholastics
International in Spanish Lake gavea crash course in Study Technology
to 5,000 Filipino teachers, who then
introduced the technology in three of
the countrys schools.
The results were unprecedented. The
first school went from last place to
number eight nationwide; the second
established a national record for rising
student test scores; and the third
advanced from remedial status to one
of the countrys top-rated schools.
In Kenya, an Applied Scholastics
rescue team delivered the Learning
How to Learn course to 14 instructors in
a school for orphans in the city of Kisii.
Almost immediately, student test scores
boosted the school from the lowest
rankings to among the highest of all
270 schools in the region. As a result,
Kenya education officials requested
a national Study Tech curriculum.
Applied Scholastics trains teachersand students at all levels and works
with community leaders, governments
and other institutions to bring about a
revitalization in the field of education.
Applied Scholastics trainsteachers and students in bothdeveloped and emergingnations, thus helping revitalizethe entire field of education.

In reply stands the Mount Gauri
Shankar School in central Kathmandu,
its principal a well-known science
textbook author and educator
dedicated to improving the quality
of education in his country.
Searching for the answer to the
seeming inability of his students
to study and learn, the educator
discovered Applied Scholastics
International and
L. Ron Hubbards
Study Technology.
He immediately
underwent training on
the fundamentals of
Study Technology, and
using those basics,
initiated a pilot program
with a cross-section ofstudents in his school.
He first presented the
three barriers to study
to eighth and ninth
graders, then to primary through middle-
school students, and then to high school
mathematics and chemistry classes.
The results were conclusive: Passing
rates previously hovering at around
30 percent soared to well over 80
percent of all students across all
grade levels.
Based on the success of that pilot
program, which used only the
fundamentals of Study Technology, the
Kathmandu school principal enrolled
at the Applied Scholastics International
campus in Missouri for the full lineup of
Applied Scholastics teacher training.
The program included Advanced
Communication Skills, Advanced
Fundamentals of Instruction, and the
Applied Scholastics Curriculum Course.
Upon returning to Nepal, he first put
it all into operation in his own school.
He then set out to deliver Study
Technology classes to all teachers
in one of the deep poverty zones of
the country. He held workshops for
instructors in remote rural communities,
including on a hilltop 350 kilometers
from Kathmandu where he instructed
teachers of 500 students from rice-
farming villages.
The Nepalese results demonstratethe potential for educational renewal
with Study Technology. That one
educator has built a network of 1,600
Study Technology educators who are
in turn transforming education in their
classrooms. He has also established a
permanent Applied Scholastics Training
Center in Nepal, inaugurated by the
Ministry of Education.

Contending with outdated organizational
and communication facilities, the nation
needed to adapt quickly to compete in
the post-Soviet world.
Recognizing that the
success of the country
depended upon the degree
its citizens possessed
a high level of language
and communication skills,
in 1997 a Scientologist
established the first
Applied Scholastics
center in Prague to bring
L. Ron Hubbards Study
Technology to the Czech
Republic.
Called Life Improvement
Through Education (LITE), the program
offered the technology of learning
how to learn any subject. The center
rapidly expanded and soon two more
LITE centers were formed. Additionally,
an Applied Scholastics office serving
both the Czech Republic and Slovakia
opened its doors.
A team of Applied Scholastics staff
members traveled from Prague to
Applied Scholastics headquarters at
Spanish Lake, Missouri, for advanced
training that equipped them to help
even more people in their home country.
LITE centers soon opened in cities
throughout the Czech Republica
total of 13 in that nation, with other
affiliates in Slovakia, India, Germany
and Spain. To date, LITE has delivered
more than 1 million hours of training to
21,000 students.
To meet the growing demand for Study
Technology, tutoring centers called
BASIC were also launched, with the
mission of helping people improve
study and learning skills and li teracy
level. To date, 22 BASIC centers
have opened in the Czech Republic
and in Slovakia, enrolling more than
3,500 students, including children
with special needs who benefit greatly
from Study Technology when other
schooling has failed.
In 2010, the group opened the f irstApplied Scholastics elementary school
in the nation. In 2011, the widespread
impact and demonstrated efficacy of
Study Technology was acknowledged
by the Czech Ministry of Education
when it announced that the central
Applied Scholastics text, the Basic
Study Manual, was officially accredited
for training the nations teachers.

Central Mexicos state of Puebla,
described as lagging behind the rest of
Mexico, reported that some 17 percent
of all students drop out before
completing primary school. A high
percentage are functionally illiterate.
A 2010 rescue mission, initiated and
led by two graduates of the Applied
Scholastics Delphi School and titled
Entiende Mas, Logra Mas (Understand
More, Achieve More), changed those
statistics dramatically. The project was
piloted in Aquiles Serdan Elementary
School. Initial delivery taught Study
Technology fundamentals to 300
students in 30-minute slots spanning
four weeks. Students were then tested
on standardized national exams and, as
Puebla educators noted, It was quite
enough to see results. Aquiles Serdan
Elementary School moved from the
lower-70th percentile to the top-rated
school in its district.
A large primary school, Jesus Reyes
Heroes, did the same, through the
use of Study Technologyspecifically,
450 students learning the definitions of
words in the subject of mathematics.
That school rose to number one in its
district on national achievement tests.
With that came confirmation from
the Ministry of Education that in
Puebla schools adopting Study
Technology, the percentage of
students scoring at the Good and
Excellent level on a standardized
national test increased 23 times more
than the national average increase.
Such results led to 600 teachers
representing a cross section of schools
statewide receiving training on learning
and literacy tools. Their graduation
ceremony was a state
function, with Pueblas
Minister of Education
presiding and authorizing
state funding to immediately
double the number of Study
Technology-trained teachers
by the end of the school
year. His conclusion: This is
what Mexico needs.
Teachers from Puebla state
continue to enroll on Study
Technology courses for educators,
making a brighter future possible for
students by giving them the tools to
learn and apply any subject.

the programRESULTS OF IMPLEMENTINg
The need to study does not end with formal education.
Anyone in the work force, whether on the factory floor or
in the executive suite, must have the ability to assimilate,
retain and then apply important information. Success in life
depends on it.
Applied Scholastics is making it possible for anyone to
acquire this skill.
The numbers tell the story:
From its teacher-training campus near St. Louis, Missouri,Applied Scholastics has implemented L. Ron Hubbards
Study Technology through more than 1,100 schools and
tutoring groups in 72 nations.
Nearly 135,000 educators trained by Applied Scholastics
have brought Study Technology to 38 million students
worldwide, opening doors previously closed to them. These
students in turn take their skills into their communities,
states and nations.
Supported by the Church of Scientology and its
parishioners, Applied Scholastics is in the forefront of
defeating illiteracy and raising the level of education.

The contributions of L. Ron Hubbard and Applied Scholastics to the
fields of literacy and learning have changed the lives of millions across the
globe. Applied Scholastics frequently receives letters of recognition and
endorsements from educators, parents and students in acknowledgement
of both its programs and the power of Study Technology.
EdUCATORS
It is my pleasure to have had the opportunity to enhance andstrengthen my pedagogical practices due to the training at
Applied Scholastics International Training Campus. I want to
commend you and your staff for a stellar record of accomplishments
and the help you are providing our future generations. Thank
you for what you are doing to improve the educational system of
Americas schools today. Assistant Superintendent, U.S.
Ihave never before come across a method which wouldenable the instructor to take any failed student and rehabilitatethem in that subject to a point where they understood it and
could apply it and could continue study in that subject with no
further difficulty. This I have done many times since 1973, usingMr. Hubbards Study Technology. Educator, United Kingdom
Without reservation, I can say that the professionalism of the
personnel, thoroughness of the training and the quality of the
Applied Scholastics Achievement Program assisted our school in
achieving the final product that was the best I have ever experienced.
By focusing on identifying and repairing the academic deficiencies of
underperforming fourth through sixth grade students, [our school] was
recognized as a Gold Star school and selected as recipient of the
Monsanto School of Excellence in Education Scholarship.
School Principal, U.S.
Study Technology is a new look. L. Ron Hubbard has been boldenough to assert that for any learning problem there is a workable
solution. Thousands of people trained in his Study Technology know this
is true and feel they now have in their hands the missing tool necessary
for both comprehension and the ability to apply in any chosen field
of study. Professor of English, U.S.

In my capacity as the reading consultant for the Danish government,
I have dedicated my professional life to understanding how
to ensure all students achieve a high level of literacy and thus
success. After having witnessed firsthand the remarkable results
of L. Ron Hubbards Study Technology, I believe it is the vital
and strong foundation on which literacy can be built throughout
the world. Advisor, Ministry of Education, Denmark
In this increasingly technological and ever-changing society, it is
paramount that all students learn how to learn. Applied Scholastics
programs accomplish this. Furthermore, the most salient feature of
Applied Scholastics materials is that they promote self-regulated learning
by allowing students to successfully overcome barriers to learning with
little or no assistance from another person. University Professor, U.S.
PAREnTS
Our son is currently being tutored by Applied Scholastics. Let mebegin by saying what you do isawesome. I am a parent witha Masters Degree and numerous awards, but in 3 years of trying, I
could not help my child understand what you have helped him obtain
in less than 3 weeks. He began tutoring in early February and a week
later was asking formore tutoring. To understand my excitement, you
must understand that although my son is amazingly talented in other
areas, academics posed a hardship for him. He is in the 5th gradebut was reading at 2nd and 3rd grade level. No matter what method I
tried, I could not help him. I felt like I had failed my child. Enter Applied
Scholastics. I see a change in my son, not just academically but
personally. There is an air of confidence he now holds. Life has opened
up for him so much more. He could read before, but now he reads and
understands. We have been blessed beyond belief. Parent, U.S.
We had been through 3 years of hell. We were told our son had
ADD, sensory deficiency problems and even autism. We had seen
numerous professionals and therapists. He had medical tests and doctors
tried to convince us to put him on medication for ADD. I hired a tutor but
after a half an hour, she told me she didnt want to waste my money, that
she couldnt help him. His teachers were letting him wander around the
classroom rather than fighting with him to sit down and learn. Fortunately
for us, my mum was talking to a lady who suggested Applied Scholastics.
After ten weeks of tutoring we started to see amazing changes in my
sons reading, writing, comprehension and behavior. He had more

confidence, was asking more questions and was looking forward to
going to tutoring to learn. I decided to learn the techniques myself as
I couldnt believe how much my son had improved and I wanted to be
able to pass this method of learning to my other children. The course
is amazing and it works! My son has now finished his tutoring and the
change in him just makes me so thankful for Applied Scholastics. This
course does work and there is help for our children. Parent, Australia
STUdEnTS
School had been very difficult for me and I was just barely making
a passing grade. I was always upset and frustrated. Then I did an
Applied Scholastics course called Study Skills for Life. I never had so
much drive and I have never been
so excited about studying. After
doing that course and applying
Study Technology, I enjoyed studying
everything. I then did the Basic
Study Manual course and I moved
faster than ever on my studies. Study
Technology has given me the tools to
make my dreams become reality.
High School Student, U.S.
With Study Technology, I am flabbergastingly quick at learning new
things. One great example is when, in three days, after studying the
definitions of the words used in programming websites for the Internet, I
created an awesome website, which incorporated my writing ability and
3-D graphic artistry. I had no previous experience whatsoever with any
type of programming prior to this endeavor. This school, with its truly
workable Study Technology, really deserves an award. Believe me, I know.
High School Student, U.S.
There are no words that can describe how I truly feel about this
fantastic tutoring I have received. I had been looking for help since
childhood, having been falsely diagnosed with a non-existent learning
disability and not given any solutions or any hope. It has taken me 32
years to find Applied Scholastics. I have completed tutoring and am now
half-way through the Learning How to Learn course. The tutoring and
courses are just fantastic. You have taken away my darkness and given
me light and hope. Student, Australia
