It started its journey in 2021 with a resolution of its Governing Council that aimed at making secondary and higher secondary education via an open and distance learning framework.

	CBOSE was designed to experiment with both the integration and the cooperation of different states in the area of open schooling. It is the Board that acts as a different academic route for the learners who cannot go along with the regular school system—so, the school dropouts, working persons, adults, and people living in the remote areas or coming from the lower strata of society will not be deprived of education.

	== History ==		== History ==
	CBOSE was the child of the idea that India's education system had to be very flexible to take care of the diversified demand, and thus alternate education systems had to be more open. So, a major part of the learners, like school dropouts, working professionals and adults needing education, wanted a system that could give them the kind of learning they needed, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach of conventional schooling.

	The establishment of CBOSE coincided with the overall national education reforms that were aimed at expanding access to education, promoting equity and encouraging lifelong learning. The Board was conceived to build up the open schooling system as a parallel and credible academic route.

}}'''Central Board of Open Schooling and Examination''' ('''CBOSE''') is an autonomous, non-profit, education-related academic organization set up as a part of the Right to Education Act, 2009 and the Article 21-A of the Indian Constitution. It operates with the goal of making education accessible and equitable through both the formal and non-formal systems.

CBOSE strictly adheres to the principles of the National Education Policy, 2020 and the corresponding legal provisions. It seeks to engage learners who have missed the chance of regular education or those who want non-traditional but friendly and easy-going educational routes.

== Background ==
CBOSE considers open schooling and alternative education systems as important and substantial means for universal education access the right way. The organization does not limit its activities to conducting examinations or issuing certificates; instead, it focuses on the overall development of the learners including their academic progress, practical knowledge, moral values, social responsibility, and skills required for the job market.

Its operations are based constitutionally upon the idea that the right to education is not restricted to classroom schooling only.

== Objectives and Social Commitment ==
The primary objective of CBOSE is to promote inclusive education, particularly for sections of society that face barriers to conventional schooling. Its focus groups include:
* Economically weaker and disadvantaged sections
* Working children, child labourers, and street children
* Women and housewives
* Minority communities
* Persons with disabilities
* Marginalised and backward classes

The board seeks to extend educational services across India and abroad in consonance with constitutional principles.

== Educational Programmes ==
CBOSE offers educational and skill-oriented programmes through open and distance learning systems, including:
* Secondary Education (Class 10)
* Senior Secondary Education (Class 12)
* Vocational education programmes
* Technical and professional courses
* Skill development and self-reliance training
* Special educational schemes for women, minorities, and persons with disabilities

All programmes and assessments are designed to provide flexibility and accessibility while adhering to recognised standards of open schooling.

== Vision ==
CBOSE has the audacity to establish a system of education in which every individual will enjoy the same high-quality and acknowledged education regardless of their social, economic, geographical, or age-specific conditions.

The organization imagines an educational world where the top three qualities of education, equality, and opportunity hold the same weight; where the co-existence of the conventional and the non-conventional teaching methods takes place; and where the different learners' demands are recognized. It considers education as a tool for the complete development, empowerment, and participation in the building of the nation.

== Nature of Organisation ==
CBOSE is a non-profit educational organization that operates as an academic body with a focus on education. It directs its efforts primarily towards open schooling, alternative education models, and inclusive learning frameworks, rather than commercial or charitable relief operations.

== Achievements and Recognition ==
The Central Board of Open Schooling and Examination (CBOSE) has been a partner in the promotion of open and alternative modes of education, which have as their ultimate goal the improvement of access to learning for various and marginalized groups. The total commitment to inclusiveness with the principle of flexibility in education has drawn CBose to the development of tailored educational programs.

Over the years, CBOSE's academic approach has been consistent with the broader constitutional and policy framework that has been the basis for the open schooling movement and many of the recognized judicial pronouncements of the constitutional courts in India that allow for the existence of the alternative and non-formal education systems. It targets people's economic conditions, to include the poor, the working, the women, the minorities, and the physically challenged.

The board has become known for its pioneering educational and social development by putting the learner at the center of attention, developing skills, and providing vocational training through open and distance learning models. The board's efforts to make education accessible for all, equitable, and lifelong contribute to the ongoing debate on the Indian education system.
