There are some similarities between how Jedi and Sith are identified and trained
- Mentors: The Jedi are trained by various Jedi Masters . They identify promising students and then teach them to channel the Force to meet their goals. Sith are trained by a Sith Master, with their training focused on how to channel the Dark Side of the Force.
- Artifacts: The Jedi built and maintain a large library of Jedi history and lore for study. The Sith have artifacts called holocrons that store knowledge. Jedi training is voluntary. Sith training is often unleashed when a holocron is stolen or viewed.
- Principles: Jedi mostly use the force to control their own actions and their emotions. Sith mostly use the force to control others.
- Recruiting: It’s rare, but not impossible, for a Jedi to recruit a member of the Sith-associated Dark Side. Sith identify vulnerable Jedi and convert them to the Dark Side.
