There is some confusion between The Force Unleashed Campaign Guide and Hero’s Guide on the status of “applicants” and what may be described as applicants-in-training. The Force Unleashed Campaign Guide reads that “explorers are the lowest-ranking members of the Antarian Rangers. They are applicants who have not yet completed the training required to become full-fledged Rangers”, while Hero’s Guide states that “while most applicants eventually go on to become support personnel -- technicians, transport pilots, communications experts -- some do enter the training required to become a full-fledged Ranger” hence it seems that within the rank of Explorer, some applicants receive training while others do not.
Hero’s Guide mentions that only applicants-in-training receive the title of Explorer “trainees are called Explorers; at this rank, they accompany Rangers on dangerous missions and get field training but are not yet given independent duties” however, since The Force Unleashed Campaign Guide was published later, the most recent information ought to be maintained, thus the contradiction may be resolved with the “in-training” substantive, possibly derived from the skill evaluation following the application.
At the rank of Explorer, applicants-in-training receive the training described above (see Training, supra) and are also taught how to teamwork.
