The Career Based Intervention (CBI) program is an Ohio Department of Education Career-Technical Education program designed for students ages 12-21 in grades 7-12, who are identified as disadvantaged (either academically, economically, or both) and/or students with disabilities, who have barriers to achieving academic and career success. The program is designed to help students improve academic competency, develop professional skills, and implement a career plan that will serve them on the path to graduation and beyond.

The CBI program utilizes a combination of in-class educational and on-site experiential learning opportunities to maximize student success. Local program design varies based on the needs of students and districts.

CBI is an intervention program, not a complete career field pathway. It emphasizes early awareness and recovery; students should not have the intention of remaining in the program throughout high school. The goal of the CBI program is to assist and prepare students for successful high school graduation, additional career-technical education and training, postsecondary education, and/or a meaningful career. Students will complete the RISE UP customer service curriculum. Successful completion and passing scores on required assessments may result in the student earning a 12 Point Industry Recognized Credential.
