Look for GetItemCheckState method on MSDN.

Found an old example. I am not sure if this will help out entirely but it should convey the general idea. You can retrieve the selected item value and /or the checklisted item alone, I created a form with a checklistbox, and two listboxes titled listbox1 and listbox2. Listbox1 one displays the selected item, and listbox2 displays all checked items. Here is the code snippet.

private void btnGetNames_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            
            listBox1.Items.Add(checkedListBox1.Text); //adds only the selected item to listbox.


            for (int i = 0; i < checkedListBox1.CheckedItems.Count; i++)
            {
                listBox2.Items.Add(checkedListBox1.CheckedItems[i]); //adds only the checked items to listbox.
            }           
 

            

        }
