Career-Based Intervention (CBI) is a career technical
education program designed for students in grades 9 -
12 who are identified as disadvantaged (either
academically or economically or both) and who have
barriers to achieving academic and career
success. The program is aimed specifically at helping
students become motivated toward education
exploring work experience. The CBI program is
designed to help students recover credits, improve
academic competencies, graduate from high school,
develop employability skills, implement a career plan
and participate in a career pathway in preparing for
careers.

CBI is based on the key principles of higher student
expectations, studying the common curriculum of the
school, providing authentic learning opportunities,
having supportive structures and establishing a sense
of belonging. In this program, the student must also
work outside the school day and earn money as well
as credit for graduation. Each student also receives
job related instruction in class. The ultimate objective
of the CBI program is graduation from high school
with marketable skills and a career path.
