11.9 How long do courses take?
Each course takes as long as it takes -- since the
student goes through each course at his own pace, he
regulates his own progress. How long it takes depends on
how diligently he applies study technology and how
honestly he completes each item on his checksheet before
proceeding to the next. The length of each course will
also depend on how many hours he studies per week. On the
average, Scientology courses take anywhere from a few
days (for most introductory courses) to several months
(for more advanced training).
Introductory services are designed to take one week at
2.5 hours a day. Academy training to become an auditor is
generally two weeks, at forty hours a week, for each
individual level.
The required time to complete the more advanced courses
is quite extensive. The Saint Hill Special Briefing
Course, which is a chronological study of Scientology and
Dianetics from 1948 to the present, takes approximately
one year, at forty hours a week. This course gives the
Scientologist the entire philosophic and technical
development of the subject, and is the most extensive
training course in Scientology.
Church staff ensure that auditors are professionally and
thoroughly trained so that they can achieve the best
results with their preclears.
