This intensive on the student is done by a graduating HPA and serves as his final before full certification is granted. The Director of Training, not the Director of Processing, is responsible for the fact of and the efficacy of this student intensive. Any further auditing desired by the student should be purchased from the Registrar by the student possibly at the suggestion of the Director of Processing or Indoctrination Instructor as indicated. These student intensives included in the course are not done by the processing department by paid staff auditors. The Treasurer has stated, on discovering that staff auditors were being used for this, that she will no longer pay staff auditors for such intensives. When staff auditors are without pcs for the week they should. be sent to CF and Procurement for full time procurement letters for the week. LRH:rs.rd L. RON HUBBARD [Also issued as FCDC P/L 9 May 1957, same title.] HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex HCO POLICY LETTER OF 29 OCTOBER 1959 Convert to Sec ED PROCESSING OF ACADEMY STUDENTS Academy students may not receive outside auditing while enrolled in the Academy to the level of HPA or higher. Academy students directed by the Director of Training to receive processing while enrolled under his instruction during any period of the time while so enrolled, even when taking Academy training a few weeks at a time, must receive their processing either in class from fellow students or from students under the direct supervision of Academy personnel or from an HGC Auditor working only for the HGC. Such students may not be given auditing off hours or on their own, time by staff auditors nor instructors, nor the Director of Training, but only as an assigned and duly enrolled intensive in the HGC. The purpose of this Sec ED is to protect the student, the Academy, and the HGC from various mishaps which have occurred in the past rendering students liable to loss of training time because of poor and unsupervised auditing. Violation of this Sec ED by a student can bring about at the most dismissal from the Academy, and at the least a delay of certification of one year, and for an instructor or other staff member for auditing such a student without proper registration, a loss of fifty percent of his units for six consecutive weeks.

In the Scale of Awareness Levels, it is AWARENESS that determines the level, NOT Conduct. Conduct is dramatization and above the awareness of the person. What can the person be aware of is the level determiner. Thus by study matched to levels (the scale up from -34) you can improve a case just by making the person study the materials of the next level above where he is. Cases that don't so improve by study alone up to Grade IV would have to be processed and are too far down to be in an Academy anyway and so should be processed up to Grade 0. The flatterer and rumour monger is not up to RECOGNITION as he or she hasn't a clue why we're here, much less what we're doing. They just haven't found the org or the auditor. So even Academy processing won't help-it takes a pro. That's the riddle of why some students progress and some don't answered. Once a person has found the org and the auditor, study improves cases (level by level) more than Academy auditing would. Naturally HGC or Review Auditing could do it easily by processing. But not student auditing student-they are too aware the other one is a student, too critical, too immersed in the idea "it's all practice anyway," in Academy auditing. So if the student is quite batty (as per TA tests) he won't make it without expert pro auditing and if he isn't he will usually make it up to IV by study alone. So why audit in an Academy. Make future auditors instead. The Academy is no substitute for an HGC for processing. And the HGC is no substitute for training. Get it? L. RON HUBBARD LRH:wmc.rd Copyright ($) 1965 by L.

FREE SCIENTOLOGY CENTRE Organize a Free Scientology Centre in your Dept of Processing. This is not the HGC. It is the student clinic. It is a section of the Dept of Processing. It is open evenings and weekends. It is run by students under org guidance. No fee may be charged. The org pays for and has on deck evenings and week ends the Free Scientology Centre Registrar. A sign is plainly displayed where every Free Centre pc can see it. THE FREE SCIENTOLOGY CENTRE All auditing is done by student auditors. It is unsupervised. We only take responsibility for auditing done in our HGC by professional auditors. The applicant for free auditing does so on his own responsibility. The results may be good but we cannot guarantee them. If you want safe auditing or are a rough case, buy your auditing in the HGC. Place an ad in your local paper or display signs near your public phone box if papers won't take the ad: FREE SCIENTOLOGY CENTRE Free services offered the Community for Problems, increases in Health and IQ and Scientology Assists. Conducted as a Free Public Service by (org name). Call Free Scientology Centre Registrar (phone) or come to (address) evenings or week ends only. ---------- The pilot project on this was 1/3 of the applicants signed up for courses and intensives after Free Service where the auditing was good, without being urged to do so. Every student with a certificate of any kind down to HBA can be a Field Staff Member. Remind the students they can select these applicants to training or processing. 222 Students doing their Provisional Classification Course are compelled to attend the Free Clinic each evening of their Classification Course and only leave if no applicants show up. They must be told to keep exact auditor reports of all they do as the Examiner will want them. The Free Scientology Centre Registrar doubles in brass for all evening and week end services-Coaudits, BS (PE), HAS as well as paid service for the HGC and Academy evenings and week ends. If she becomes very busy give her reception service. Students can help her if they volunteer. They may not be assigned without volunteering as it cuts into their processing time. She must get the name and address of every Applicant and the Auditor Who picks him up and turn these into Address the next business day. She need not assign student auditors. They should be on their own and should bring the applicant in to get him registered. Auditing can be done in rooms as available. There is no real effort here to do more than have students pick up people in the waiting room and get them registered and take them off to audit them. It is up to the student to make continued appointment. The student may not accept any gratuity of any kind. But the student if a field staff member, may select the person but only after at least an assist and a case gain. Only standard processes of the student's study level or below are run. No effort need be made to follow the grade system on free pcs. Just get a result with standard processes. There is no D of P work on free pc folders. There is only Examiner work and it is without advice. A course (instructor) supervisor may use the free folders as examples of what to do and what not to do if so minded. The Free Folders are picked up by the Examiner and sent to the Dept of Estimations on org lines for filing under the student's name, cross-filed with a card under the pc's name. The legal attitude is "Well, you knew it was a student auditor". Courts uphold this. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:mh.rd Copyright ($) 1965 by L.

Academies don't process. HGCs do. Students up to 1952 never did auditing in their courses. They audited raw meat. There is a firm basic policy about training. The student is trained with the tools he will use as an auditor. This means even at Level Zero they have E-Meters in their laps whether they know how to use them or not. This also means their practice auditing is a raw meat PC. Where are students to get auditing experience? See Free Scientology Centre above. Where do they get their own cases cracked? Students Can audit other students but only on their own initiative. Course Supervisors can see if their TAs and needles are awful and make them get auditing. In Dianetics auditors didn't have cases. We audited an awful lot of people well. Since, Academy and course emphasis on cases is ruining your training. In the Classification Course (Practical) a student must show he can audit a pc so he can be pink sheeted. And that can be on another student. But just for show. The Examiner, for final Classification Exams for every level must require Legible properly kept Auditor's Reports showing success with pcs on the processes of the level. Non-standard application or a false report must be reported by the Examiner at once to the Ethics Officer. This auditing can be done in the evenings of the (Practical) Classification Course and on week-ends on the Academy evening courses. The best auditors we ever had were taught before students auditing students became a part of training. The Dept of Training Trains. Coaudits, clinics, processing belong to the Department of Processing. There is no more Course Auditing for the sake of another student's case. Auditors audit. If a student's case gets in his way as an auditor (until you have a full Qualifications Division as is now formed at Saint Hill) he goes to the HGC. If he wants to coaudit, he can join the evening Coaudit at no charge. I have found out that a student's delay on course is usually not for theory and practical but because of auditing-auditing required because of student cases, not for student learning. So that finishes Academies and courses as a place to go to get audited. It's where you go to get trained. Let's turn out some eager beaver auditors! That audit! L.

HCO Policy Letter 31 July 1965 "Purposes of the Qualifications Division" states that the prime purpose of the Dept of Examinations and all its sections and units is: "TO HELP RON ENSURE THAT THE TECHNICAL RESULTS OF THE ORGANIZATION ARE EXCELLENT AND CONSISTENT, THAT STUDENTS AND PRECLEARS ARE WITHOUT FLAW FOR THEIR SKILL OR STATE WHEN PASSED AND THAT ANY TECHNICAL DEFICIENCY OF ORG PERSONNEL IS REPORTED AND HANDLED SO THAT THE TECHNICAL RESULTS OF THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUE TO BE EXCELLENT AND CONSISTENT." "The integrity of Scientology and its hope for beings in this Universe are entrusted to the Department of Examinations." Because of the above it becomes necessary that students in training present their preclears to the Examiner to be declared at the grade of Release attained if a floating needle is attested by the student auditor. Even if a floating needle is not obtained students should still present their preclear to the Examiner for her to observe that good indicators are in on the pc. Provision for this is made on the Night Foundation and in cases where the preclear works at night and cannot be presented to the Examiner, special representation may be made to the Examiner and the matter will be individually handled.

A student when looking for a preclear to audit for their classification on a level must first check with the preclear if they have been audited by an organization and if they have, they are not to be audited by the student without express permission from the organization concerned. As the purpose of having students get preclears to audit on their own initiative is to teach them how to disseminate and reach into the broad public, it is hardly acceptable for them to reach Scientologists and will be an automatic disqualification for classification if this is found to be the case.

STUDENT AUDITING The following policies regarding student auditing are made with reference to LRH ED 104 INT 2 Jun 70 "Only training gives low cost auditing from fellow students" and LRH ED 107 INT 3 Jun 70 "See that students do a lot of mutual auditing". Students may not audit any public preclear. (Unfinished but promised pcs existing at this date of issue may be assigned to the student as a Charity pc by the Chaplain.) Students may audit students who have been enrolled and who have paid in full for a Scientology level 0 or above or Dianetic Course. They may also audit contracted staff members and may be required to audit organization preclears under the D of P who are not enrolled on a course in order to complete their auditing requirements. The course supervisor is to ensure that each student preclear's folder is C/Sed for each session to be given and that any needed folder error summaries are done. The course supervisor must make the auditing requirements of' students and preclears known on a scheduling board so that student auditors can be assigned to preclears and sessions scheduled. Regular sessions may be scheduled during course hours besides any other mutually agreed upon time. The Classification requirement for each level is that the student successfully audits several preclears to the attainment of the grade of release of the same level by auditing each of the many processes of the grade to its end phenomenon. The auditor must produce consistent well done or very well done sessions on at least three preclears in which all standard tech for that grade has been exactly applied. Every effort must be made to see that the student audits each process of the grade. Scientology course students may audit Dianetic Course students on any needed Scientology actions. Any student auditing successfully for the Director of Processing may be given an honors class for the level. A student who has honors for every level may be awarded an honors final certificate and the certificate clearly marked and permanent. He also may be awarded an Interneship for his highest class qualifying him as a C/S for that Class providing he also does the C/S checksheet well for that class Interne. Students not permitted to audit for the D of P and who otherwise qualify as students are awarded PROVISIONAL certificates made permanent only after a year. Students may NOT audit local residents for classification and the Free Scientology Centre is not now permitted. They may of course audit anyone after graduation and if for fee, must charge at least as much as the full org price. They may of course, if qualified, audit friends and family free of charge.

Only cash may be accepted and no credit allowed. 8. Healing laws must be given heed by not selling such auditing or promising to heal by reason of Dianetic auditing. 9. The course may be advertised as, paraphrase, the way up to a capable human being is the realm of Dianetics-Scientology reaches from a capable human being upward. Success in Scientology is assured by a thorough grounding in Man's most advanced school of psychology (or the mind)-Dianetics. Dianetics was the ultimate development of the mind of human beings. Scientology is the road from there to total Freedom. This is a study and practice course which is a prelude to becoming a Scientology auditor and brings one a complete understanding of the mind so that one is then prepared to understand the spirit in Scientology, etc. 10. Academies and especially Saint Hill may teach and practice HCOB 3 April 1966 as part of Level 0 providing it is studied along with the other materials and forms the practical of Level 0. At this writing there is no pattern of how to include this material and one must be developed by experience. But it is pointed out that Academies have never failed to do well so long as a one-piece Dianetic type course was available. It could be that experience, cautiously won, will show that the public will buy the Dianetic course in droves. It could be we should drop the Dianetic word from Dianetic techniques as refined in HCOB 3 April 1966, as they are really pretty awfully advanced from where we were in 1950 and call it the Basic Auditor's Course or the Basic Academy of Scientology Course and call the technique Basic Scientology. If so, texts will have to be edited and Scientology substituted everywhere for Dianetics. These problems are left to the Org Exeo Sec WW as they will gradually evolve into a new success. L.

In all publications or announcements this fact must be included. Dianetics is known as a healing mental science and as such, announcement of its use could be interpreted as an entry into healing by Scientology organizations. Dianetic Auditing may NOT be offered for sale in Hubbard Guidance Centres or by Centres. It may be offered as a training course in auditing by Franchise Holders, Centres and Orgs but ONLY by making the statement in every announcement that it is to train auditors and is not part of Scientology practice. Dianetic auditing demonstrates mental anatomy to students and improves their auditing skill. Scientology practice is today too fast to permit training as an auditor to be sufficient to qualify them. Its re-introduction in no way enters orgs into the field of healing despite the fact that healing does occur in Dianetic auditing. The insane belong to the psychiatrist and we as a reform group only wish he would clean up his practice and get his practitioners to act ethically, and actually help his patients. The sick belong to the medical doctor and as a social group we only wish he would advance his science to include workable psychosomatic medicine. We are not interested in the insane or the sick and refuse to take them in Centres and orgs. We are only interested in freeing the human spirit from materialism and making the able more able. Dianetic auditing is not for sale or use by centres or orgs. Use of it is instructional only. Any benefit is incidental even if sometimes considerable. Dianetics was and is the answer to psychosomatic illness but we in Scientology are not in the field of healing. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:lb-r.cden Copyright ($) 1966 by L.

Any person not recovering his health and sense of well being by use of Dianetic auditing should be given by competent medical and clinical doctors or technicians a thorough physical examination to locate the illness, structural or pathological (disease), which is troubling him and introverting him. Scientology healing and mental treatment policies apply to Scientology. Dianetics is fully excepted from these policies. This is in view of the strong and increasing interest and cooperation of individual medical doctors over the world which should be continued and promoted. This policy does NOT include turning any person over to institutions or practitioners engaged in political treatment and expressly does not allow the use of such political treatment as electric shock, lobotomies, brain "operation" or drugs producing convulsions. This policy does permit surgical and structural operations including the alleviation of concussion or skull fractures or the removal of brain tumors but only after they are proven to exist beyond any doubt by competent clinical examination. It does not include exploratory operation. The severance of nerves to "end psychosis" is expressly condemned and the use of produced convulsion by any means to "alleviate psychosis" and the practice of euthanasia (mercy killing) or any barbaric torturous or murderous or terrifying treatment or approach are not only not condoned but should be actively fought due to the non-therapeutic results, the immediate or early demise of the "patient" and to the efforts to use these "treatments" to effect political ends. The persons using these means actively financed and fought Dianetics and Scientology over the world and were the sole source of repression of a valuable sincere and vital breakthrough in the field of healing as consistently demonstrated. This HCO Pol Ltr amplifies as policy HCOB 6 April 1969 and HCOB 12 March 1969. Dianetics is a healing practice supplementing medical treatment. Scientology is a religious practice applying to Man's spirit and his spiritual freedom. In areas, mainly America, where the freedom to heal is subject to attempted monopoly, all Dianetic auditing of physically ill persons (not as student practice) must be in conjunction with competent medical practitioners who must be informed why a medical examination is requested for the preclear. "This is a member of the Church of Scientology. As he may be physically ill we wish a full medical examination and diagnosis and any medical treatment which will resolve the illness found. With the leave of the medical doctor and with the patient under his care we will employ Dianetic auditing as well to assist his recovery. Until healed this person is not eligible for Scientology auditing. We cooperate fully with the medical profession and expect in our turn that our trust in it will not be betrayed. Under no circumstances will we permit this person to be brutalized with psychiatric political treatments." In other countries any variation of this statement or its lack may be employed, depending on the legal position of healing. LRH:cp.ei.cden L. RON HUBBARD Copyright ($) 1969 Founder by L. Ron Hubbard ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 232 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex HCO POLICY LETTER OF 5 MAY 1969 Issue II Remimeo Dianetic Course Qual Secs Tech Secs DIANETIC COURSE EXAMINATIONS There are two examinations on the Dianetics Course. 1. PRE-AUDITING EXAMINATION. This is done after the student has completed the theory and practical drill sections of the course. The examination is standard and has been written up and issued to all Qualifications Divisions in Orgs. It must be passed 100% before the student is permitted to audit. As Dianetics is now a very standard routine it will be found that the student either understands it or he doesn't. There are no shades of grey. If the student flunks the examination he goes to Cramming to review the materials of the course. 2. FINAL EXAMINATION. This is done after the student has completed his auditing requirements. When the 25 hours of auditing are complete (or more if required to obtain the required result), the student presents all his auditing folders to the Examiner with an attestation that he was the auditor, and that all the sessions he audited have been recorded in the folders presented to the Examiner. The Examiner inspects the folders to see if the auditor has demonstrated the practice of Standard Dianetics and to see if the PC has attained the expected gains. (If the sessions look standard but the PC has not attained the expected gains the examiner knows the session reports are incomplete or false.) If the Examiner is satisfied the student is auditing 100% Standard Dianetics the student is passed and graduated. If the auditing is non-standard and the results have not been obtained the student must continue auditing until the Examiner is satisfied. The student auditor's sessions are case supervised. If the PC is in trouble the auditor ends the session and sends the PC to the examiner. The case supervisor orders the student to cramming if he has goofed. The PC may be ordered to a Scientology Review such as a Green Form. Review and cramming are at normal Org rates. There is no charge for case supervision.

Clauses I and 2 (Evaluation and Invalidation) especially must be thoroughly understood. The Dianetic student must be able to demonstrate these with many different examples of each and should even write an essay on all the ways he can possibly think of evaluating for and invalidating a PC. Clauses 12, 13, 15 and 24, are sometimes misinterpreted by improperly trained Dianetic auditors who are not too familiar with what they are handling. The clauses do apply but the following notes are made: 12. I PROMISE TO RUN EVERY MAJOR CASE ACTION TO A FLOATING NEEDLE. In Dianetics you are auditing chains to ERASURE. Erasure of a complete chain is normally accompanied by a F/N. The handling of a lock is not in itself a major case action and may or may not produce an F/N. 13. I PROMISE NEVER TO RUN ANY ONE ACTION BEYOND ITS FLOATING NEEDLE. In Dianetics you do cease an action on an F/N. But, if the F/N is on one incident and the chain is not erased you just cease to run that incident but continue on down the chain to erasure. 15. I PROMISE NOT TO MIX THE PROCESSES OF SCIENTOLOGY WITH OTHER PRACTICES EXCEPT WHEN THE PRECLEAR IS PHYSICALLY ILL AND ONLY MEDICAL. MEANS WILL SERVE. As Dianetics concerns the body, Medical and Dianetic practices may proceed together. Whenever possible you would cease medical treatment during auditing but sometimes the medical treatment can only be eased off gradually. With accidents and acute illness medical treatment must be given immediately and the engram can only be audited when the PC has somewhat recovered. In some instances the PC will Only respond to correct medical treatment after a Dianetic assist has been given. You never mix Dianetics or Scientology with any psychiatric, occult, mystical, hypnotic, or other practices. 24. I PROMISE NOT TO ADVOCATE SCIENTOLOGY ONLY TO CURE ILLNESS OR ONLY TO TREAT THE INSANE KNOWING WELL IT WAS INTENDED FOR SPIRITUAL GAIN. The improvement and freedom of man as a spiritual being is the vital realm of Scientology. Dianetics erases those things (Locks, Secondaries, and Engrams) which make a person susceptible to, and hold in place, physical illness. Hence Dianetics, while not treating illness or insanity directly, does enter those fields. When a person is no longer troubled by unwanted physical conditions he can then advance on the much wider field of spiritual gain and freedom covered by Scientology. The use of F/Ns in Dianetics and the relation between a Dianeticist and the medical practitioner is fully covered in other materials of the Dianetics course.

This means that Students are not required to be checked out by another person, the exceptions being only those bulletins which have drills especially designed for their study, as contained in HCO Bulletins. The student does however have to attest that he knows each bulletin or policy letter on the Checksheet in detail and that he is able to apply it. This is done by signing each item on his own Checksheet when he has studied it. Further, a student may work with another student to be sure he knows it. In this case, HCO Policy Letter of 26 August 1965, "Scientology Training-Twin Checkouts", should be followed, except that the student still attests on his own Checksheet for each item.

The teaching of Dianetics Auditors is laid down on these simple principles. 1. The data on tapes and Bulletins is studied without alter-is, interpretation or addition by the student, fellow student, instructor or supervisor. 2. Well done and other folders are studied by the individual student. 3. No lecturing or additional interpretation or evaluation by Supervisors. 4. The student audits only when he has completely passed on I and 2 above. He must not audit before he has completed his checksheet three times through. 5. Things the student is weak on are done in clay. 6. The student is sent to cramming at his own expense for bad auditing goofs. He may also be taken off auditing and made to do his checksheet again. 7. Any student question is answered by referring to the HCOB, folder or tape or by explaining it is beyond the scope of Dianetic auditing. 8. A rigid invariable schedule is precisely adhered to. 9. Checksheets and tapes and folders are gone through in the sequence laid down by the checksheet and not randomly Out of sequence. If this is made difficult then the programme must be cut back to the bare bones of the original above. The teaching of standard tech must also be standard. Therefore the above MUST be adhered to completely. L. RON HUBBARD Founder LRH:jp.an.ei.rd Copyright ($) 1969 by L.

Ron Hubbard ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 239 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex Remimeo HCO POLICY LETTER OF 14 MAY 1969 Dianetics Course Issue II Sup. Section HOW TO DO A STARRATE CHECKOUT Earlier forms of education suffer because of a habit. The habit was contracted in one's years of formal schooling where this mistake is the whole way of life. If the student knows the words, the teacher assumes he knows the tune. It never does a student much good to know a few data. In life one succeeds only if he can USE facts. It is so easy to confront thought and so hard to confront action that the teacher often complacently lets the student mouth words and ideas that mean nothing to the student. ALL THEORY CHECKOUTS MUST CONSULT THE STUDENT'S UNDER STANDING. If they don't, they're useless and will upset the student eventually. Course difficulties stem entirely from the student's non-comprehension of words and data. So examining by seeing if somebody "knows" the text and can quote or paraphrase it is completely false and must not be done. Correct examination is done only by making the person being tested answer (a) The meanings of the words (re-defining the words used in his own words and demonstrating their use in his own made up sentences), and (b) Demonstrating how the data is used. The Supervisor can ask what the words mean. And the Supervisor can ask for examples of action or application. A Starrate Checkout must have been 100% right answers for a pass. However the following rules apply- 1. Spot check the words and materials, do not try to cover it all. This is done the same way a final examination is given in schools; only a part of the material is covered by examination, assuming that if the student has this right the student knows all of it. 2. Flunk on Comm lag in attempts to answer. If the student "er ah well ," flunk it as it certainly isn't known well enough to use. (Doesn't include stammerers.) 3. Never keep on examining a bulletin on the same exam after a student has missed. THE GLIB STUDENT You will find that often you have very glib students you won't be able to find any fault in who yet won't be able to apply or use the data they are passing. Demonstration is the key here. The moment you ask this type of student to demonstrate a rule or theory with his hands or the paper clips on your desk this glibness will shatter. The reason for this is that in memorizing words or ideas, the student can still hold the position that it has nothing to do with him or her. It is a total circuit action. Therefore, very glib. The moment you say "Demonstrate" that word or idea or principle, the student has to have something to do with it. And shatters or passes. Clay Table isn't used by a Theory Examiner. Hands, a diagram, paper clips, these are usually quite enough! Compiled from earlier policy letters by Tony Dunleavy LRH:TD:an.ei.rd CS2-Training Aide Copyright ($) 1969 for by L. Ron Hubbard L.

Here more than any other points, alteration can enter. Altering, doing something else, is a sufficiently serious problem to destroy a Course and all the benefits of Dianetics in a whole area. Early on, during the development of the Standard Dianetics Course, we were suddenly getting case failures. These were traced by Case Supervision to wild variations from Standard Dianetic procedure. These variations were traced to an examiner who during student checkouts was giving "advice". As soon as this was handled, case gains immediately resumed. Over the many years of Dianetic use, I think we must have seen all possible variations of auditing. "New" phenomena were often discovered and used and eventually the whole subject wandered off into never-never land and ceased to produce uniform results. What has happened here in Standard Dianetics is that the exact actions that produce results on all cases have been isolated and used as THE procedure. The procedure is a thin narrow walk way through a huge field of potential alterations. THERE ARE NO DIFFERENT CASES. Built in to the Standard Dianetic procedure are the remedies. For instance early Dianetics was plagued by several problems: 1. Lack of visio-an inability to see pictures. This was solved by getting date and duration. 2. Perception shut off. Not required in total now to produce results. Sonic, ability to hear the sound in pictures, is not needed at all. Impression is sufficient. 3. Somatic shut off. Not now required to be solved but its source (drugs and alcohol) have been discovered. 4. Rough sessions. Solved by TRs. 5. Lack of auditor judgement in diagnosis. Solved by the E-Meter. In these years of research I have been able to wrap up these and other things. There have been more cases run on Dianetics than could easily be counted. So the research data is very broad. This is no new subject. It has been close to 39 years under research. Thus what you are told on the Standard Dianetics Course is the essence of all this 245 work and experience. There are no unsolved problems, there is only varied application where there should not be. The whole object of the course is to train people to get good RESULTS, and train people to give a course that results in GOOD AUDITORS. That's the whole thing. We could also teach over 50,000,000 words about things that don't get results or train auditors. The essence of a brilliant subject is a simple subject. Therefore anything that varies the data of a Standard Dianetics Course can send it out into unworkability. I've seen auditors also use "peyote" (a drug), CO2 and drugs "to help auditing". I've seen many different meter types used. I've looked over a thousand different ways to run a session. And I've seen all these things fail. The four points of greatest potential failure are 1. A Course Supervisor who interprets data and alters it in order to satisfy some student's offbeat quest. 2. An Examiner who throws curves into data by means of invalidating the right data. 3. A Case Supervisor who does not simply and only put the auditor back onto the main line and who seeks to "solve" cases by altering data. 4. An Auditor who, not knowing his data in the first place, alters the data and, because in an altered form he fails, starts off on a wilder alteration of data and fails harder. Under Supervisor comes the course and cramming supervisor both. So you see, that to get real Standard Dianetic results going in an area you have to be very alert to hold the exact data line as contained in the HCOBs. Where you begin to find case failures, look to I to 4 above and to student failure to just simply study and drill. For the first time you have an exact subject in the field of the "humanities". These "humanities" for all man's history have been a mass of superstition, bad logic, propaganda, authority and brutality. An exact humanity is so new that it has a bit of a hard time. All the errors and prejudices start to "blow off" when truth enters in. Just be sure you don't lose the subject with the confusion. Cope, make do, hold the line and you'll have a successful Dianetic area. It's worth working toward, worth achieving. You have only one big stable datum. IF IT ISN'T WORKING IT IS BEING VARIED. To get it working again, find who and what is varying it and get back on the main line. LRH:an.rd L. RON HUBBARD Copyright ($) 1969 Founder by L.

DIANETICS FULL REFUND IF YOU DO NOT GET WELL THROUGH AUDITING. Anyone accepting this offer must also agree to receive if required a medical examination and any effective treatment for any entirely medical illness he may have both before and after auditing. The extent of the refund will consist of the exact fee paid. The claim for refund must be made within three months of the conclusion of the auditing. If the fee is refunded no more Dianetic or Scientology auditing or training may be given to the person. Medical illnesses which beforehand could not be cured medically usually respond to medical treatment after some auditing. Auditing after such medical treatment tends to stabilize the medical cure and prevent relapse. A standard release form covering these points must be signed by the applicant. Some large percentage of Man's physical ills are psychosomatic and respond directly to auditing. Only auditing done by Hubbard Dianetic graduates in official organizations are covered by this offer. WHY BE TIRED? WHY BE IN PAIN? WHY FEEL BAD? AUDITING CAN MAKE YOU FEEL WELL AND HAPPY WITH LIFE. OUR ORGANIZATIONS ARE FRIENDLY. THEY ARE ONLY HERE TO HELP YOU. ----------- These points above are to be included as additional clauses in our release forms. IF ANYONE EVER DEMANDS A REFUND UNDER THIS OFFER make him or her sign an undertaking never again to purchase training or processing and A RECEIPT IN FULL and GIVE THEM THEIR MONEY BACK ON A MINUS INVOICE AT ONCE. Do not make a long argument out of it or a long drawn out Admin action. By paying these claims quickly, getting the promise not to have more auditing or any training and getting a receipt YOU ACTUALLY BUILD CONFIDENCE. It is fully understood that this campaign applies to DIANETICS. Trying to sell Scientology to make physical health has been a betrayal of Scientology. The subject that made bodies well was and always has been Dianetics. Scientology increases ability and gives one immortality. Refunds for Scientology services are governed by the older policies which remain in force. ----------- The first line, FULL REFUND IF YOU DO NOT GET WELL THROUGH AUDITING, can be posted in any display space. If so, a small printed complete leaflet as written above should also be displayed so they can get all the facts. Persons asking about this should be handed the leaflet. New additional leaflet should also be available and handed out at the same time: DIANETICS Dianetics (Dia-through, noos-mind) has been 39 years in development. It is the first fully precision science of the mind. 247 Physical illness, aches, pains, continual exhaustion, body malfunctions are created or held in an unchanging state by the mind. This is called psychosomatic (psycho-spirit, somatic-body) illness. It has been known about for a century but there has never been a positive remedy before Dianetics. Auditing (it means to listen) is a term given to the application of Dianetics. No drugs, no hypnotism, no mechanical treatment is used. The actual source of psychosomatic illness has been isolated in Dianetics. Processing is the action of an auditor letting the preclear (person not yet cleared) find the actual source of his physical illness. Processing requires usually 25 hours or less. --------- Various forms of mental therapy were in existence before Dianetics. These were psychology, psychiatry and psycho-analysis. Psychology and psychiatry were developed chiefly by a Russian veterinarian named Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849-1936). His basic principle was that men were only animals and could be conditioned and trained much like dancing bears or dogs. This work was only intended to CONTROL people and so has found great favor with certain rulers and upper classes. None of the activities of psychology or psychiatry were designed to help or cure, only to Control the masses. Psycho-analysis was developed by an Austrian Jew Sigmund Freud (1856- 1939). His occasional successes served to point out that there was a possibility of solving psychosomatic illness through addressing the mind. His concentration on sex gave the subject considerable popularity. Dianetics was first released in 1950 and has been increasingly successful since that time. Unlike earlier studies, the interest of Dianetics was the relief of physical suffering. The results of psychiatry are physically damaging, consisting of various brutalities and often injure the patient for life or kill him outright. There have never been any cures listed or claimed for psychiatric treatment as its interest lies only in control. The cost is about $2000 a month often for years in America and £60 a week for as long as a decade in England. Psychology is mainly used for testing aptitude or intelligence. It has counseling as part of its activities but it is more concerned with and financed for warfare. These two subjects have bitterly contested any healing subject and use public media governments and even rumor to forward population Control. This action has often made it difficult to bring bonafide mental health to the people. Psycho-analysis requires up to five years for an uncertain result and costs about £9000. Dianetics requires only a matter of hours, only helps and does not physically injure anyone. It costs about $25 an hour in the US and about £50 total processing cost in the UK. There is no quarrel between Dianetics and general practitioners of the medical profession. They both have the same purpose (to make people well) and are not political. It is freely admitted in Dianetics that physical illness that can be effectively treated medically should be so treated. Auditing will not set a broken leg or deliver a baby. But it can help get the leg healed in two weeks instead of the usual six and after effects of childbirth do not exist when Dianetic auditing is also used. Many people who cannot work, who cannot enjoy life, are physically ill without realizing it. Aches, pains, colds, even malfunctions of the body are symptoms of illness. See the Registrar. (address) _____________ Variations of the central ideas of these themes may be used. But remember, Dianetics is pastoral Counseling and all HDGs must be ministers. Psycho-somatic means spirit-body.

It is expected •that all Dianetics Course students will complete the Course after having significant gains on Standard Dianetic auditing. This modifies the policy for the Dianetics Course ONLY that students may not audit other students. The policy that students may not audit any public preclear who is a preclear of any organization is also modified for the Dianetics Course ONLY as far as other students on the Course are concerned. Dianetics Course Students will of course have to also audit pcs who are not on the course to complete their requirements, in which case the above policy DOES apply in that such preclears may not previously have been pcs of any Scientology Organization. NO DIANETIC PROMOTION MAY PROMISE OR INFER BECOMING CLEAR BY DIANETIC AUDITING. THE END PRODUCT OF DIANETICS IS A WELL BODY AND A CHEERFUL ATTITUDE TO LIFE.

The student raises his hand when he is ready for a checkout. The supervisor comes over and gives a checkout as per HCOB 11 Oct 1967 "CLAY TABLE TRAINING". All demos must be checked out in accordance with this HCOB. TRAINING DRILLS The training drills are checked out, with the Supervisor being "the coach". If student flunks Supervisor has the student coach drill him on the TR some more telling the student coach what the student flunked on. E-METER DRILLS The Supervisor is to closely supervise E-Meter drills, making sure they are done correctly. (On Dianetics Course E-M Drills 23 & 26 are *checked out.) SELECTION OF TWINS One of the duties of the Supervisor is the selection of twins. The main object in selection of twins is to team up students of comparable ability. SLOW students of course are sent to the Examiner for Review or Cramming. Poor case gain students are sent to the Examiner suggesting "GF to F/N and no 4OGF and handle". (One Cannot order Qual but one can suggest.) You just have to work it on trial and error for the first couple of days until you get an idea of how fast the students are. Twins should remain twins for the duration of the course in so far as possible and are responsible for each other's progress. COURSE AUDITING ADMINISTRATION Part of the duties of the Course Administrator are: 1. KEEPING A FULL RECORD OF WHO'S AUDITING WHO. (a) No. of sessions (b) Auditor's name (c) PC (or pre OT's) name (d) Dates of each session (See HCO Pol Ltr 24 May 69 "Progress Board", Record of Sessions Given.) 2. Scheduling preclears to auditors. 3. Making sure all auditing reports, work sheets and Summary Reports are written legibly or written over neatly by the auditor using a different colored pen. 4. Making sure all folders are intact ready to go to Case Supervisor. 5. Having folders easily accessible and in alphabetical order so they can be quickly obtained. The Course Administrator must make available any folder the Case Supervisor or Student Auditor requests.

A COURSE SUPERVISOR WHO DOES NOT KNOW HIS COURSE MATERIALS TO THE POINT OF BEING ABLE TO INDICATE WHERE IN THE MATERIALS ANY DATUM CAN BE FOUND WILL EVALUATE FOR AND GIVE DATA TO THE STUDENTS. Further students will have extreme confidence in the Supervisor who can and does direct them to the exact Bulletin section or paragraph where they will find the answer to their tech questions, or which they need to study further. Therefore on any Supervisor's Course, the student must be drilled and is expected to know his materials by Bulletin and paragraph. He must know his materials backwards as well, as Study Materials and supervision technology. The Text Book for any course must be compiled by subject, and paragraphs numbered. There must be an Index by Terms, giving all the page numbers these terms are used, with any page on which they are defined in heavy print. There are two Dianetics Courses. HUBBARD STANDARD DIANETICS COURSE. On this course the student is trained to be a highly competent Standard Dianetics auditor. It is a thorough course, taught tough, and to graduate the Student must have gotten excellent case gains himself and on his preclears. He graduates by reason of excellent examination marks and well done sessions. The certificate for this course is the HUBBARD DIANETIC COUNSELOR CERTIFICATE. The Graduate of this course is NOT qualified to teach an HSDC. The second course is the HUBBARD DIANETIC SUPERVISOR COURSE. This course requires that the student knows his Dianetics Course materials so well that he can point to anything in the materials. He must also know thoroughly the Study Material and Supervision Technology. The Hubbard Dianetic Supervisor Course is taught only in Official Scientology Organizations, and. is very tough with lots of drilling. The student graduates as a HUBBARD DIANETICS GRADUATE and he, and only he, is authorized to teach a Hubbard Standard Dianetics Course or a Hubbard Dianetics Supervisor Course. A Dianetics Counseling Group should have a Hubbard Dianetics Graduate as only then may it conduct and run a Hubbard Standard Dianetics Course. And it must hold a Franchise to do so. It should send in to an official Scientology Organization its best Standard Dianetics auditors to be trained on the Hubbard Dianetics Supervisor Course.

Ron Hubbard Founder ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 253 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex HCO POLICY LETTER OF 3 JUNE 1969 Issue II Remimeo Dianetic Course Checksheet LEGAL STATEMENT CONCERNING DIANETICS AND MEDICAL PRACTICE LAWS Dianetics is a science. It is not Scientology. In the hands of a medical practitioner who is also a trained Dianeticist, Dianetics 'may achieve remarkable results in the handling of many of the problems and ailments which make up' a large part of ordinary practice. It does not infringe upon orthodox curative medicine for known physical ailments. In this context Dianetics may be called 'treatment' and be said to 'cure'. In the hands of a priest or minister who is also a trained Dianeticist, the same tool has a different use and function. It is used as a technology of pastoral counselling. It is then not used to treat and to cure in the medical sense, but to handle the effect of the spirit on the body. Dianetics, after examination, treatment, cure and a clean bill of health, as necessary, by a medical doctor, is used as a tool by the minister to free a person's attentions from his body so that he is ready for Scientology. It is thus true pastoral counselling and has a religious function. Dianetics as a subject taught on the Hubbard Standard Dianetics Course can be promoted in any authorized way. The teaching of Dianetics cannot be excepted to. But promotion of the practice of Dianetics as a treatment for the sick or afflicted or as a treatment for blemishes, deformities, diseases, disfigurements, disorders, injuries or other mental or physical conditions, by other than medical doctors, will violate the medical practice laws where they exist and lead to trouble. Hence the importance of controlled promotion, of sending sick pcs to a medical clinic for examination, for emphasizing that pastoral counselling is a use of Dianetics and is a religious use with the purpose of handling the effect of the spirit on the body and not a use which conflicts with the proper sphere of the medical doctor as' laid down in medical practice laws. That is not to say that Dianetics is a religion. It is not. It is a science, but it has a religious use-to free the spirit from bodily considerations. Such problems of the spirit are not the function of the medical doctor, nor the concern of the medical practice laws. A proper adherence to the distinction between promoting Dianetics the science taught on the Dianetics Course, and Dianetics the pastoral counselling technology practised by Ministers of religion, will resolve any problems posed by medical practice laws.

They are vital points which must be policed and kept in. You can almost take it on the basis that if student auditors wreck any pcs these points are out and MUST be put in fast to save the repute of Dianetics, the Course, org and area. 1. A student must not be permitted to audit until he has passed a tough written examination with a grade of 100%. 2. When a student flunks his auditing or examination he or she re-does the whole checksheet fully (three times through). If a Qual Cramming section is available with a trained Dianetic Cramming Supervisor the student, after flunking, goes to Cramming, gets his misunderstoods, etc. handled and then does the checksheet through three times. 3. When the student re-does his checksheet he must be checked out again on the bulletins and drills as though he had never done the Course before. Do not check him out, on only those bulletins he flunked on or misapplied. 4. The person who says "it is all an overrun" (when made to restudy the materials) usually hasn't studied his materials in the first place. 5. LRH case supervised folders must be available and properly studied on course and on any retraining. 6. All materials must be available to the student. The course is compact and meaty. The student cannot graduate (or audit) without having checked out on all bulletins at least three times. Crossing an item off the checksheet as 'not available' is not permitted. The Course Administrator must ensure all materials are available. 7. A student must be shown and must study all the C/Ses of his sessions before auditing another session. He must be checked out for understanding of the C/S instructions of each before auditing another session. If this is not done he will repeat errors already corrected by the C/S but not known to him. 8. Any new bulletins issued and designated for the Dianetic Course must be issued to the students and checked 'out and must be" added to checksheets for new students. New bulletins are issued because (a) an important new aspect of the technology has been developed by Ron or (b) the bulletin is required to correct an outness persisting in the application of the technology. In either case it is vital for students to have the data and to be able to apply it. 9. The Supervisor must not give Tech data to the student-even if he does know it verbatim. He must only refer the student to the materials. If your students are auditing satisfactorily for a period and then the sessions go on the rocks, auditors who were previously doing alright start doing goofy things, you can be certain somebody is giving Tech data. That is the time to call in Inspections and Reports or the Ethics Officer to do an Investigation and find out WHO. The most likely person is the Course Supervisor, the Examiner, the Cramming Officer, or some 255 other 'technically knowledgeable' person. It may be one of the students or it may be that the students are permitted to get their Tech data from other students. 10. The Course must be tightly scheduled, starts, breaks and end of day being very precise. 11. The course must be closely supervised, the supervisor there on time and there during the course, with no other org duties, and an adequate number of supervisors and administrators must be on staff when the course gets too large to be handled easily. Large courses are broken down into sub- units. These are the points which, if permitted to fall out, will wreck your course and your pcs. We have already seen these points go out several times on a closely watched course. It is quite insidious and is immediately reflected in goofball auditing that drives a Case Supervisor nuts. Tech Secs, Qual Sees, and Case Supervisors must be alert to see that the Course Supervisor gets these points in and keeps them in before all your Dianetic pcs wind up in Review.

When you are physically well, you can begin Scientology training and processing on your road to total freedom." And another sign, "This organization will not recommend or condone political mental treatment such as electric shocks or brain operations or convulsive drugs and condemns utterly this Fascist approach to 'mental health' by extermination of the insane. Because we will not agree to brutality and murder under the guise of mental healing or to the easy and lawless seizure of persons in the name of 'mental health' for political reasons, we are fought ceaselessly by those who seek domination of this country through 'mental treatment'. You are safe so long as we live." The registrar is to sign the person up as he or she would any preclear. The org must make, a liaison with a medical clinic which has diagnostic equipment and obtain a flat rate charge. Legally and ethically it is all right to send a person to a doctor for a physical examination, but it will cause an ARC break with the doctor to specify what he is to do in that examination. It is best to say merely: "Would you please do a complete medical examination to include any acute or chronic illness and any effects from past injury or illness." It should be made clear to the medical doctor who pays his fee. "Your fee for this examination and for any special investigation will be paid by the bearer." It should end by saying, "Would you please give a note of your findings to the bearer." Note that it would be unethical for the medical doctor to treat any curable disease found unless the person examined specifically asked him to treat it, other- wise he would refer the person to his own doctor. A doctor cannot be asked to supervise a person while he is having auditing because he cannot professionally be asked to join in a non-medical attempt to cure some illness, for if he did he would be subject to discipline, charged with "covering", and if found guilty, struck off the Medical Register. The org should make their position very clear to the clinic-that they are trying to co-operate with the medical profession and that Scientology is a religion. However, after or in the absence of medical treatment if none is needed, the persons sent will be given Dianetic auditing after such medical examination and treatment, if given, or under medical [supervision]. A clean cut difference should be made between Dianetics as an assist done under a physician's care or after his treatment and Dianetics as a religious function of pastoral counselling or Scientology as a religious practice. If contempt or hostility is met, write a letter of complaint to the medical 257 association and try another doctor or clinic. In such a letter of complaint make it very plain that you are not engaged in physical healing, that you have always tried to co-operate with medicine and that your Only quarrel is with psychiatric casualties and their perversion of the medical profession. If the clinic shows clear cut evidence of the need of an operation, the D of Processing should give the preclear the verdict. If the preclear will not have it, arrange a meeting between the preclear and the doctor and discuss it. It is possible to engage in Dianetic processing even when a medical verdict is for an operation, but if the preclear will not have it, then undertake Dianetic processing only under the doctor's care and with his consent, and insist upon the preclear being re-examined during processing. The cost of the examination and any operation is in addition to processing fees and any such charges are paid directly to the clinic by the preclear, the org not taking responsibility for the costs of these. After any medical treatment, the entire treatment is run as an engram or chain as the first action. Lingering symptoms are also run down to their basics as per Dianetic Auditing Assists given in the Dianetic Course. Policy is not to engage on auditing sick pcs without medical advice or treatment as required. Insane pcs are handled in this same fashion as they are mainly physically ill, need rest and no harassment. Insane pcs are a lot of trouble unless One has an institution to hand, but institutions cannot be trusted. Until an org has some means or connection by which the insane preclear will not be brutalized, shocked or operated on with brain "operations", it is better to refuse them. By insane pc is meant one who is subject to highly irrational and destructive behavior. If not, they are regarded as physically ill. The senile and mentally retarded are also handled as per physically ill pcs as above. Waivers in all cases are required. A new clause, "Will not hold the organization or its principals responsible for medical costs or errors", must be included in signing persons up for Dianetics. Complete files of all such should be kept in Division 6 to show in case of need (a) that the org does not engage in physical healing and (b) success stories with full records, X-rays, etc for Dianetics. Where this policy letter is fully in force, earlier policies on healing and the insane are cancelled. This change of policy is due to (1) our wish to cease to individuate from the other social groups of the society and (2) our refusal to leave the field of mental healing in the hands of public enemies. This is also part of our campaign to Revitalize Western Society. "A well society is a sane society." L. RON HUBBARD LRH:fas.ei.cden Founder Copyright ($) 1969 by L.

East Grinstead, Sussex HCO POLICY LETTER OF 24 JUNE 1969 Remimeo Examiners DIANETICS PRE-AUDITING EXAMINATION Confidential HCO Policy Letter of 5 May 1969 Pre-Auditing Examination is cancelled. The pre-auditing examination consists only of a tough written examination which must be passed 100% before the student is permitted to audit. After a period the current written examinations will become too well known, also some students may flunk the exam several times before eventually passing with 100%, hence more examinations will need to be written from time to time. These should be originated as necessary by the Qual Sec WW or, under his direction, by some competent person who is a Dianetic Graduate. All examinations must consult the student's understanding and ability to relate the materials to a session. ' Sometimes a student will get high marks in the nineties and only lost marks for an incomplete answer rather than incorrect answers. In such cases the examiner after marking the paper can verbally ask the student the questions on which he lost marks. If the student then gives the missing data, without having referred to the materials or discussed the examination with somebody in the mean time, he passes. This Opportunity is not given if the student answered any question incorrectly, or had less than about 94% on first marking. The purpose of the examination is.. to find out if the student knows and understands the materials cold. If he doesn't he will mess up cases. The student who flunks the examination or auditing goes to Cramming and then back to course to re-do the full course. THE ENTIRE PURPOSE OF THIS EXAM IS TO PREVENT THE MESSED UP PCS WE FIND OCCURRING WHEN THIS QUALIFICATION TO AUDIT EXAM IS OMITTED. Brian Livingston CS-5 for LRH:BL:eky.ei.rd L.

The Supervisor being over anxious and harassing all his students to graduate without flunks can unwittingly bring about slow cautious students. This extends course time and the mode is carried over into auditing. The students then become slow cautious auditors. An auditor who, in session, is being careful not to flub, not to violate any tech datum or policy will not have his TRs in, will not have the PC in session and will flunk his auditing. Dianetics is a fast simple course. It is not complicated. The majority of students will fly through the course in two to three weeks of full time study. If they don't the supervisor has probably gotten too cautious and inadvertently slowed the course down. It happens several ways. For example: A student goes into auditing and then flunks. The supervisor feels responsible for not having trained the student adequately. He then takes up the student auditor's flunks' with the whole class and has them all star rate check out on the bulletin so they won't make the same mistake. Another example is the supervisor who goes anxious about the few slow students on course. He feels he is failing as a supervisor to have any slow students so starts spending much of his time coaching, checking out, and handling the few. It awards a down stat. This is done to the detriment of the majority of fast students. The supervisor should simply twin, the slow students, have them work together using a dictionary and checking each other out on the materials. When they really know the data the supervisor checks them out on their star rate materials. He doesn't spend a lot of time with them. If they just can't make the grade he routes them off to Qual for Cramming and Review to handle. There are two types of students: (a) The student who has had good case gain and studies easily, or the student who may not have had much auditing but studies and audits well in spite of his case. (b) The student whose case continuously gets in the way and requires auditing before he will make much progress. The fast students are permitted to fly right along, no harassment or interruptions, quick concise checkouts. They go fast. They are encouraged to go fast. They get the idea that Dianetics is simple and they want to audit. The supervisor doesn't introduce complications or unusual assignments or 'special drills' not on the checksheet. The student then gets into auditing. He knows the course was simple and uncomplicated. He carries this attitude into auditing and produces simple standard sessions with good results. The slow student is twinned with another slow student (not with the supervisor) and if he doesn't make the grade at all he is sent to Cramming after a period and auditing may be required. The system of senior students auditing the newer students, together with any needed Reviews, will handle the (b) type student (particularly if a Class VIII Case Supervisor and Review Auditor are available). The supervisor must 260 avoid being led into giving the slow student special attention and additional time at the expense of the majority fast students. Supervisors are normally very hard working and conscientious. They do an excellent job but can, in their own well intentioned desire to have all students doing well, be misled into adding to the course, becoming instructors instead of supervisors, getting too involved with slow students and thus slowing down the course as a whole and producing slow cautious students who carry this attitude into auditing and so flunk sessions. A supervisor doing this can make students too frightened to audit. If the supervisor validates the fast students by quick pertinent checkouts, keeps the course simple and avoids all additives (like assigning additional checkouts to the whole class, or group question and answer periods, etc), pairs up any slow students and uses standard course policy, Ethics and Review, he will have a fast course and will produce competent uncomplicated auditors who' know and apply their data, like to audit, and give good standard sessions.

But any student other than the person's twin may give the student a Starrate Checkout. The person giving the checkout initials and dates the checksheet, thus attesting that he has given a proper Starrate Checkout and that the Student has passed.

THE SUMMARY OF A BULLETIN FROM THE ACADEMY IN WASHINGTON D.C. CONCERNING TRAINING Scientology organizations have recently surveyed and re-studied training and its results in the light of the best benefits for the student, the public and the organizations themselves, therefore the following programs are being instigated, as they prove feasible. Training is classified and is being enfranchised along the following lines: FIRST LEVEL: , FREE COURSE This level of training is performed by Auditors throughout the world and even by the organizations themselves. It consists of a one or two-week free course (depending on whether or not it's given five times a week or three times a week) covering the most elementary principles which general groups can agree with in Scientology. The total aim of this course is to get people who are working in and are interested in Scientology to carry forward more of Scientology programs. This is a very important course both for individuals and the organization, but it's mainly important to the general public. It is not the purpose of this course to teach even a tenth of what appears in "Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought". The purpose is to take people who have or have not heard of Scientology and give them their first real reality on the subject by taking some of the most elementary but far-reaching principles and getting them to examine the principles and finally come to an agreement concerning them. No certificate is awarded on this course. SECOND COURSE: ADVANCED COURSE This course is given for a fee and consists of twenty hours or more instruction, advancing even further into Scientology and teaching in particular two subjects, ten hours of instruction at least being devoted to each. These instructions cover exactly the first ten hour period of the Advanced Course: the communication formula and its use; and the second period of at least ten hours: the tone scale. These two subjects are taught-each an equal number of hours so that people can be admitted to an Advanced Course at its mid point. Here again there's no effort to teach auditing but only the use and application of the communication formula and the tone scale. Two books exist for this subject. One is "Dianetics 1955!" which covers the communication formula, and "Science of Survival" which covers at least the elementary tone scale and what can be expected from it. These are the two text books of this particular course. Care must be taken in this course that the student is not overwhelmed and confused but is actually given ,a few more key stable data with which he can work in line. This course does not intend to make an auditor, there is no certificate granted for this course. THIRD COURSE: ELEMENTARY SCIENTOLOGIST This course teaches auditing of individuals and groups and is in actuality a very complete course on the subject of Scientology. It takes up 1956 HCA tapes, it takes up the various text books and it teaches individual and group processing and teaches as well the handling of organizations and personnel in them. It is probable that this course would cost about $125 or at least £35. This course requires a right to train from the Founding Church or the HASI. It ends with a certificate from the Central Organizations, the exact title of this auditor has not been established, but the title would mean Elementary Scientologist. The certificate is signed by the Training Auditor who did the actual training and by the secretary of the organization issuing' the certificate. The title of this course would not be an HCA Course even though HCA tapes are used and the certificate given would not be Hubbard Certified Auditor or Hubbard Professional Auditor. As it is to this level that most rights to train are directing themselves and as they are cramped by having to charge so much money and as the examination has occasioned so much difficulty, it is thought to be helpful to Auditors "training in the field" to have this course to teach. FOURTH COURSE: HUBBARD CERTIFIED AUDITOR This course will be taught by the Central Organizations only. The British 264 equivalent would be Hubbard Professional Auditor. According to present planning this course would. require as its fundamental the requisite certification by a field training auditor either in day or night school, probably most effectively the latter and would apply some of what had been paid on an elementary course to the fee in the Central Organization as a reduction. In other words it would not only be a requisite in having training elsewhere but also the training elsewhere would carry with it a reduction. That this is only taught by the Central Organizations does not mean the Central Organizations would not also teach an Elementary Scientologist Course. A considerable rigor of training would be entered in to the Central Organizations and the certificate of HCA or HPA would be. awarded by examination only. FIFTH COURSE: HUBBARD ADVANCED AUDITOR (B.SCN. ABROAD)~ This course would be an extended Advanced Course which would more closely take up 'the entire body of theory and information of Scientology and which would improve the Auditor's case level and operational ability. The certificate of Hubbard Advanced Auditor (Bachelor of Scientology abroad) would be awarded at course completion by 'reason of successful examination. SIXTH COURSE: HUBBARD GRADUATE AUDITOR (D.SCN. ABROAD) This course would be taught as an Advanced Clinical Unit, preferably by L.R.H. only. It would consists of the equivalent of a three-week intensive, two weeks of high school indoctrination so as to be able to cope with any kind of a case and a week of coaching on processes. This is actually a new type of Advanced Clinical Course only so far as its actual pattern is concerned. It would be instructed by L.R.H. At the end of course by examination the certificate of Hubbard Graduate Auditor or Doctor of Scientology abroad, would be issued. SEVENTH COURSE: ORGANIZATIONAL INTERNSHIP This course would be actually an internship and would be available in the several ways as follows: (a) TYPE A INTERNSHIP. The Central Organization chooses amongst the HPAs or HCAs graduating, extremely likely students and offers them a year's internship to be performed in the various organizational units, auditing, instructing and administrating so as to completely familiarize the student with the various workings of the organization (which are sufficiently complex and are a sufficiently large study at this time that very few people understand them who are not working with the organizations themselves). The student would sign a contract paying a certain sum of money by the contract to the organization for the year's internship. A Type A Internship would however give the student several weeks of probationary employment at a rather low wage and the remainder of the year employment at a reasonably good wage,' only less than that of an equivalent staff member. At the end of his year's training he is given a certificate as a Staff Auditor and with that title, which, attests the fact that he has served for a year within the organization in the capacity of a Professional Auditor. The Type A Internship and no other internship would influence earlier training fees contracted. By issuing such internships the organization would be sure that the individual then released into the field 'would be able to carry on independently and would be able to do extremely well as his auditing would be excellent. The reason of being entered on an internship would not bring about any other degree and these would have to be studied for as in an ACC, deducting only such time of study from the year, but the fees for any additional courses would have to be paid. (b) TYPE B INTERNSHIP. A Type B Internship would be solicited by students, not offered by the organization. It would consist of the payment of a fee to the organization for a year's additional training in the organization itself and would follow more or less the same pattern as a Type A Internship, with the exception that the Type B Intern would not be on the pay roll. All of his activities would be conducted on a purely self-supporting basis. 'He would pay the' fee to the organization for this work and training. At the end of that time he too would be issued a certificate as Staff Auditor of the organization. Both' the Type A. Internship and the Type B Internship certificates would be signed by the Director of Training and Director of Processing and by L.R.H. 265 (c) TYPE C INTERNSHIP. This Internship would be available to HCAs determining to work 'with Staff Auditors in the field. In addition to his HCA training he would then have a year's training working in the offices of other auditors. The initiation of a Type C Internship would be totally in the hands of field auditors and the arrangements they would make would be completely independent of the Central Organization. The only certificate authorized for a Type C Internship would be an endorsement on the HCA or HPA certificate by the Central Organization that this auditor had worked for one year with a field auditor under internship. Concerning all Internships, credit for the Internship fee would be no great liability to the organization since people who will get around the organizations for a year actively engaged in handling the fundamental problems of the organizations of Scientology are usually in their later personal practices quite well off. No shorter period than one year should be tolerated. The Intern in leaving the organization or in committing sufficient breaches of the Code of a Scientologist to occasion his dismissal from the organization would not be absolved from his Internship contract and the contract should be so written. When he has passed his probationary period of the first few weeks and has actually been accepted on a full internship basis he is fully committed to his Internship contract. Up until that time his dismissal or relief from Internship would absolve him of the contract. The grade of permanent staff would therefore have to be designated. This exists in fact at this time. There are auditors who prefer the companionship and team-work of the organizations to individual practice and these as Instructors and Staff Auditors are ,the backbone of the organization. They would therefore have to be specially designated as permanent staff and would receive a higher salary than other auditors in the organization-by which is meant permanent interns Type A. This training plan is built out of experience and although some fault may be found with it in various places it is discovered that a high fee long duration HCA course works a considerable hardship on a field auditor. He does not actually profit from it. He could however profit from a low fee evening or even day-course without the added complexities of Central Organization examination, checking states of case and the randomity which has occasionally arisen. It is thought that a person with the right to train would be able to support himself much better financially at the lower fee he would rather charge and without having the duress put upon him to do the same amount of work with the student as would be required in an HCA. Furthermore' this type of training could be made available in other parts of the world than the United States. The Central Organization could actively Support these rights to train by demanding that training be done to some degree in the field as a requisite to Central Organization courses. This would permit the Central Organization to turn out a better grade of HCA in the long run and would actually put a lot of auditors into action throughout the country who would not then, if their work was not of the highest possible calibre, bring embarrassment to auditors in the field who are 'very busy in numerous directions and do not complete training to the degree that the Central Organization insists on. One of the reasons this third course is instigated is to permit the auditor with the right to train to swell his numbers of students and to relieve him of the rather heavy expense connected with an arduous complete auditor course and permitting him to exist without putting into rivalry with himself a number of people who have more or less the same degree he has, a point which has lately been found quite important in large cities. A new training contract could be entered into with the Central Organizations which obviated the irksome "Bond-note" and the duress which has occurred because of the anxiety of the Central Organization to keep up the quality or raise the quality as high as possible of the HCA or HPA certificate. This arrangement would not influence certificates issued ex post facto, but would influence all future certificates. Areas of training could be assigned to people with the right to train. It has been discovered that people who take the Free Course and the Advanced Course then get ready for a third course, and unless this course is available they are dead-ended since these are business people who must take their training at night and it is not usually possible for them to take a local course of the vigor of HCA, nevertheless they want to become auditors and professional Scientologists and every effort should be made to encourage them. At the same time, since every auditor who has a right to train has been trained by the Central Organizations, his own dominance in his area to some degree depends upon his own level of certification by the Central Organization and he should not be permitted to destroy his dominance in his own area by creating equal grades, or grades which even come within the scope of Central Organization certificates since the public itself is liable to consider this an equal grade. This is actually antipathetic to the general customs of man, which is why it has not worked. The basic error in all these rights to train was the people were being given the right by the Central 266 Organization to create at the same level of operation as themselves and a considerable hardship resulted since their own Superiority in their own areas then became rivalled and randomity ensued. It is my recommendation to various staff and executives that this be taken up both in Washington and London, looked over very carefully, and a thorough paper be prepared and issued on the subject giving in addition the exact cost, except in the case of the Elementary Scientologist where the fee should be arranged in the area by the individual auditor doing the training. ,He should not be limited in his charges or made to charge excessively. Completely aside from the actual studies which have been made of the subject utilizing the data accumulated during the last six years, we have at this time another paralleling program of some interest in the Central Organizations. This, just amongst ourselves, consists of processing people up to a point of where they can handle other people. We have accomplished this now. it is a fact, and as we ourselves advance in the organization in this capability we then of course then extend this capability outwards, therefore we will have to be thinking in terms of seniorities of certificates and training in order to back up this basic program. The basic program of course consists of demanding that everybody that we keep in good circulation and that we help along, have enough' processing on the current processes to permit him to control rather easily individuals and groups. This of course going out as the waves in a pool into which a stone is dropped would mean that our organizations would become dominant on earth. It might not even take very long to accomplish this program. In working with this program we of course must have an equivalent series of training staffs. One further note on Elementary Scientologist. We would require this certificate and successful completion of a further course above as a pre- requisite to Ministerial ordination by the field churches. They are going to ordain people anyway sooner or later and we prefer of course. that they ordain at HCA or HPA level, but they can ordain at the Elementary Scientologist level, but we require an HCA ordination and therefore we have a much higher grade of ordination and it makes the ministers which we train dominant in the field. It is my suggestion that for their own good, people with rights to train and other people who'd like to have rights to train, particularly in the British Isles and in places in America where there is very little training, that this third Elementary Scientologist Course be sold. I do not think it would be wise to undertake in the future HCA training in any branch office of the organization, such as New York or Dublin. I think it should be adequate that those offices simply run a third level course. They would find many more candidates since they would not have to charge as much money and these offices are not equipped to train at HCA the way we're training now. One of the primary factors which makes this an urgency and gives us a priority in putting it in through the works is the use of a double-type of training which we're doing now in the Central Organization where we indoctrinate for two or three weeks and even process before we train. Nobody can afford to do this in the field. The cost of it is very high, consequently nobody will do it in the field. Therefore an HCA course and an HPA course will become something entirely different. There is no reason under this why British auditors in good repute with the organization could not undertake evening courses for people in their area in order to fit students of theirs for using Scientology in industry and personnel posts and so forth. The title of the grade is important since it must be good enough to make the field auditor capable of selling it and it must not be so good that it devaluates a Central Organization certificate-must hang in that middle-ground. Another factor which occasions this release to executive staff and interested persons is that I am not willing that auditors who are poorly trained and in terrible condition longer use Hubbard Certified Auditor when I have not even seen them or checked them. We're getting sufficiently big that I realize with a shock that I have Central Organization HCAs around that I have not even met and this is a peculiar state of affairs. We have to have some way of identifying the arduous training which our people receive because we are about to make it about ten times as arduous as anybody in the field would even dream of. Let's put this one into operation. LRH:re.rd L. RON HUBBARD Dict'd 12.9.56 Typed 19.9.56 267 NOT HCO POLICY LETTER ORIGINAL COLOUR FLASH NOT GREEN ON WHITE HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 37 Fitzroy Street, London W.1 HCO BULLETIN OF 3 MAY 1957 (Issued at Washington) To All Staff TRAINING-WHAT IT IS TODAY HOW WE TELL PEOPLE ABOUT IT In London I made up a chart of training for the Comm Course (former Indoc) and HPA/HCA. This course is plotted exactly on eight weeks including an intensive by a graduating student upon an incoming student. The stable datum of all training now is: "A student is graduated when his training level is such that he could be entrusted with an HGC preclear." Thus examination is rendered much easier and stable. HPA/HCA Training requisites stress: 1. Synopsis of all important Dianetic and Scientology Books and a synopsis of tapes heard. 2. Profile student achieved when auditing an incomer. 3. Memorized Axioms. 4. Five levels of Indoc. 5. Long form CCH. 6. Good attendance record. 7. Ability to Group Audit. 8. The Codes down pat. That is more or less it. The Chart is intensely specific. Paramount in all our training are: I. To get our graduating students in good shape; and 2. To make sure our incoming students are given a good week intensive by the graduating student before the newcomer enters Comm Course. Why? Because Comm Course can reduce havingness and we want our new Comm Course student to learn, not agonize. Training today can be pretty smooth. But be alert here. We've changed type of training from emphasis on Classroom to emphasis on Student. "Academy" means coaching. In Public representation of Washington and London schools Stress that eight weeks of personal individual attention can make a Scientologist and a good one and that this is why the cost is what it is. This training is the best on Earth for living in general as well as doing Scientology. "It's personal. It's for you. It's good. Only those who have it can Survive." L.

RON HUBBARD LRH:rs.rd [Note~ Per HCOB 9 October 1958, in Qualifications for HPA/HCA, Advanced Procedure and Axioms was added to the list of texts, and also replaced Handbook for Preclears two paragraphs later.] 271 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 37 Fitzroy Street, London W.1 (Issued at Washington D.C.) HCO POLICY LETTER OF 2 OCTOBER 1958 Worldwide Distribution and Application SALE AND CONDUCT OF ACADEMY COURSES (Refer to HCO Policy Letter of 1 October 1958) As of October 15, 1958, effective date, the circumstances and enrollment procedures of courses are changed worldwide. While the administration must yet be set up the fact and advertisements exist as of October 15, 1958. Even if it isn't done don't put anybody on wait while we scramble. Sign them up and somehow deliver. Basically: A student may enroll for a course as before but he must understand it will require a year from enrollment date to get his certificate because of Extension Work. We then have two phases of training: Extension Work done at home, and Class work done at the Academy. His course in the Academy is still 8 weeks for HCA/HPA, London, 5 weeks for HCS/BScn, London, 6 weeks for HGS/DScn, London. He may do these weeks at once but he has other work to do as well. He is enrolled for a one-year course in each certificate status. He should not be discouraged by confronting him with this. It does not matter when he takes his time in the Academy so long as he does it. There are written work, exercises and reports on cases to be done before his final exam. It has always taken a year, you can say, to get any actual certificate. We are just now making a reality of it. He can audit people or do anything else he wants, but the time is one year from enrollment to certificate in any grade. He could take all Academy work for all three grades in 5 months all jammed up but he'll still have to complete his first year to get his first certificate. This is no gyp school. It takes three years to get the top rating and more time is spent on the mind and thetan in those three years than in 1 5 years of psychology or psychiatry. We're taking over the fields of the mind and spirit on Earth. Our people have to be good. Any applicant will agree to that. EXTENSION COURSES Anyone may enroll in an Academy course to HCA/HPA for £2.0.0 or $5.00. He has to buy his texts (we give away no more texts after October 15, 1958 and allow only membership discount if he is a member). The enrollment is for one year. Any answer to his enrollment is to send him C.O.D. (permission to do so must be on the blank he sends in-blank to be in Certainty) a "Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health", hard cover. (Blank must also be able to say he already has it if he does.) He is sent directly by first-class mall his first lessons. Even if he has been in Academy he does these. They are printed lessons he has to fill out. He furnishes the envelopes and stamps. The lessons are uniformly simple. One is due back each week. The page is perforated at the bottom so a lower strip may be torn off by the Extension Course Director, written on and returned by first-class mall in an envelope. The student gets a nudging card if he fails to send in a lesson. These lessons are a chapter by chapter coverage of Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health only. They require mainly agreement. The student can go no further than Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health data (no practice) when we find it necessary to bring him in for his 8 weeks (preferable) or at least a Comm Course. Given his Comm Course, his next lessons still apply to Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health but now they are auditing practice lessons. We make him find locks, secondaries, engrams in several people. Then we bring him back for more training or (if he took his 8 weeks) we have him audit things out of people-locks, engrams, secondaries. We have additional lessons covering the remaining texts. The Addressograph Section takes these students' names and addresses and keeps the list up to date. Sets of envelopes, cards for file for lessons (that can be used as postal cards but are not stamped) for each week are run off and refiled as lessons appear from student (leaving the delinquents to be reminded by simply mailing the card). The whole of this or any extension course is crisp comm line and accurate 272 administration. It is simple if it is prompt and neat. The whole project can be nicely ruined by poor administration on this. The quality of lessons should be good but are secondary to good thorough administration. People would always rather get a new theory or a dizzy plan rather than face these vital pieces of Mest and a systematic handling of them. Cards and file drawers are obviously vicious. A plan of the course and how to do it is sent with the enrollment reply, plus an enrollment card he can show his friends to explain why he wants to practice on them. Similar texts and enrollment measures are taken for the HCS/BScn course, and the HGS/DScn. The texts for each of these courses are listed in HCO Policy Letter of October 1, 1958. No other textual or factual material is to be used and no further course booklets or pamphlets are necessary. What is necessary: Lesson tablets, in glued-together sheets like a writing tablet, 25 lessons to a tablet, each sheet being its own lesson. The sheet is perforated across the last 5th of the page. The student's name, current address, course, and answers, are all written by the student. The Extension Course Director writes any comment or grade on the bottom slip, tears it off and sends it back to the student. If no lesson came, a card goes to student reminding him. When it comes time for the student to come in for his course he comes in, pays for the week or weeks he takes, goes home, gets more work to do, is finally examined (either at home or at Academy [two different exams]) and when he passes he promptly gets his certificate. This is true for all three courses. Certainty must at once carry ads and continue to carry ads for "Academy Enrollment-one year, do work at Academy and at home-Enroll now, £2.0.0, receive your first lessons." An enrollment blank, that with £2.0.0 enrolls him must always be part of the ad. The idea of field training plus Academy training for a certificate and the fact of 3 years of training to the top will appeal. Academy courses must be carefully geared to HCO Policy Letter of October 1, 1958. This scramble to "get the newest learned first" is giving us training disasters. Of course, the student would prefer facing a thought or theory or a quick think process to facing real live engrams, secondaries, and banks. So we don't train them well. They're not like 1950 Dianetic auditors-they're flinching these days. And who said you couldn't clear people by running engrams? You couldn't if you had no TRs and therefore ragged auditing and ARC breaks. Any time you write or say Dianetics today, define it-"Dianetics, that part of Scientology which stresses mental anatomy." That swings people into Scientology before they think about it. They are not then surprised to hear from the Academy of Scientology about Dianetics, "A minister has to know mental anatomy before he can know the spirit," "The brain forms no part of the study of Dianetics," are two more lines that must be gotten about even if only as bottom lines on a Certainty or Ability page. ---------- This programme of 3 years training by 1 year stages is now begun. We'll just have to commit ourselves to it and cope with it and have it wheeling before the paper-back Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health gets in the drugstores next spring. So here we go. Who activates all this? Why, you do, of course. L.

The questions are consecutively numbered from 1 to 160 with the Identifying letter on each number. Example: Section B, third question, is 3B. The name of the textbook but not its page numbers, is carried on every lesson page, not each question. We only want the questions for the section, not the printed complete product. The questions concern only vital definitions needed for a knowledge of the subject and examples of the use and meaning. To do a course, use the following: 1. Make a list of all vital definitions used in the text specified on the subject. These should number around eighty so pare or expand the list until it is composed of eighty vital words or phrases or objects: Use the definition for odd numbered questions. Demand an explanation, an example, a discovery from real life, a consequence, etc, of the definition as the following even-numbered question. The Extension Course should give the taker a passing knowledge of Dianetics and Scientology terminology phenomena and parts. This is its goal and purpose. The reasoning or examples in a text are considered secondary, for the purposes of the course, to precision definitions. The Extension Course Student should finish the course with the feeling he is dealing with a precision science, composed of identifiable parts. Example (not necessary to use): Question 5A: What is a reactive mind? Question 6A: Give something out of your own experience that would illustrate a reactive mind at work. The main tasks imposed here are (1) To summarize the important definitions and parts of Dianetics and Scientology from a text and (2) Ask interestingly for an application to life. Now you see why I want your swift help in writing it. It would take one person months. Your contribution, as assigned in this bulletin, will speed it up by months. L.

If an HPA wants to retread to new HPA course, he can pay the usual price per week for training (about 15 gns). I know there is now a mish-mash in training because of a new course more basic than old courses. We'll just have to cope. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:cden Copyright ($) 1959 by L.
