GS exploratory to SA?

I’ve heard mixed things about whether or not attending a GS exploratory program gives you a leg up in the SA application process. I’ve heard officially that it’s just to give you an outline of what a career at GS could offer but that on the DL they’re actively looking for new recruits.

Can anyone confirm this? Or simply share more info about the program? There is so little information about them out there.

Thanks.
