			<p>CAI compares an individual&#39;s vocational interests to 90+ specific careers that reflect a range of positions in today&#39;s workforce &ndash; including skilled trades and technical and service professions &ndash; that require 2 years or less of post-secondary training.</p>

			<h3>Benefits</h3>

				<li>Basic interest, occupational, and nonoccupational scales for 91 occupations enable the counselor to explore a variety of career possibilities with the client.</li>
