What is training?
Training is the way to learn the technology of Scientology. It is the
word
used to describe the study of Scientology principles so they can be applied to
accomplish the purpose of improving conditions in life, both one’s own and that
of others.
Courses range from the introductory, where an individual can learn the basics of Scientology, to advanced courses which train individuals to become expert auditors.
Each Church of Scientology has a courseroom, also known as an Academy. Students study the written works and listen to taped lectures of L. Ron Hubbard in the precise order set forth on a checksheet for each course. A Course Supervisor is present in each courseroom to assist students to attain full understanding of the material they are studying. A Course Supervisor does not teach, lecture or interpret in any way, but instead refers the student to the correct material if the student is experiencing difficulty. Because of the checksheets and the Supervisor’s role, students are able to proceed at their own individual pace.
Films on important aspects of auditing also are used to facilitate the student’s comprehension and practical applications of auditing as part of Scientology training.
The end result of training is that an individual is able to be an auditor for another person. Because Scientology offers an understanding of human behavior, training as an auditor also provides individuals with a means of dealing with real-life situations by understanding their causes. Training gives Scientologists the know-how to resolve difficulties in life that might otherwise appear insoluble.
