Soon after the Iron Curtain fell, Applied Scholastics organised seminars to bring the Study Technology to Russian educators. The spring of 1992 saw the introduction of Study Technology through the establishment of an L. Ron Hubbard Study Hall in Moscow State University.

By 1994, Applied Scholastics was delivering seminars and working with officials of the Moscow Education Department, the Russian Ministry of Education, the Russian Institute for Teacher Qualification and many Russian schools.

Today, Applied Scholastics groups and tutors are active throughout the CIS. In 2002 and 2003, Applied Scholastics tutors delivered more than 100,000 hours of tutoring each year and helped more than 13,000 students.

In December 2002, Applied Scholastics staff conducted a series of workshops for top Pakistani educators and Education Ministry officials, teaching them the basics of Study Technology. Many participants expressed their revitalisation as educators as a result of learning the Study Technology and realising they could now truly help their students.

As a result of this programme, the Minister of Education announced the implementation of this technology in 100 Pakistani schools.
