Challenges associated with dissemination of CTI

Type of CTI	Challenges
Research-tested CTI	Not ready for dissemination without significant modifications
	Reduce data collection
	Update/streamline software and user requirements
	Software no longer functional due to changes in technology and/or logistics
	Funding not provided in original grants for dissemination
	Funding difficult to obtain after research project has ended
Proprietary CTI	Legal/ownership restrictions prevent broad dissemination/sharing
	Designed to provide competitive advantage to company which inhibit sharing of technology
	Cost of CTI may prohibit broad adoption/dissemination
