Cadet

Cadets are neither officers nor are they enlisted personnel. Cadets still attend Starfleet Academy and only serve on Starfleet ships for training purpose for a limited time period.

The term also applies to attendees of the Starfleet Marine Corps Academy.

The equivalent term in the Federation Starfighter Corps is air cadet.
