Study Tech

Study Technology, or Study Tech, is a teaching method developed by L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the Church of Scientology. Study Technology is used by Scientologists as part of their training, and is also promoted outside the church by an affiliated corporation known as Applied Scholastics, which presents Study Technology as a secular, universally applicable method to enhance the comprehension of any student, studying any topic. However, detractors of the technology, including former teachers, have claimed that the tech and associated schools are intrinsically linked with religious aspects of Scientology.

Hubbard wrote in a Scientology policy letter in 1972 that "Study Tech is our primary bridge to Society." Most Study Technology books include a two-page biography of Hubbard that does not mention his role in creating Scientology.
