The World Institute of Scientology Enterprises (WISE) is a non-profit religious membership organization for Scientology comprised of business leaders and professionals in many fields. It helps assure that Scientology churches remain distraction-free, instills religious ethical principles in business, and licenses marks associated with the religion and Mr. Hubbard to appropriate individuals.
As an additional matter, WISE members recognize that the organizational principles L. Ron Hubbard developed have a broad application to any group, to improve both their own organizations and society at large through the application of Scientology administrative and ethics technologies.
WISE furnishes arbitration services to its members to help them quickly and equitably settle business disputes. By utilizing Scientology ethics and justice principles and procedures, such disputes are kept out of an overloaded and sometimes capricious legal system. Further, WISE ensures that high ethical standards are maintained by its members, which contributes to the overall creation of a more ethical business environment.
WISE also provides a way for businesspeople to network by publishing a directory of members and giving them opportunities, such as conventions, to meet.
In response to the growing demand for Mr. Hubbard's administrative technology, WISE established the Hubbard College of Administration in 1991 to provide instruction in the theories and application of the administrative technology to the general public. There are currently nine such colleges in the United States and abroad, including in Russia.
