技术培训和传播中心概要 C-THAN技术培训和传播核心（技术培训中心） 超过12年的教学和专业知识，在进行需求评估的POC 西北大学凯洛格管理学院（凯洛格）的技术。以来 2006年，我们提出的技术培训Dis团队已经培训了300多名MBA学生进行 在以下18个国家进行了概念性运作技术需求评估：博茨瓦纳、巴西、柬埔寨、 中国、印度、肯尼亚、莱索托、马拉维、莫桑比克、纳米比亚、尼日利亚、南非、斯威士兰、 坦桑尼亚、乌干达、越南、赞比亚和津巴布韦。我们已经进行了这些需求 包括西北大学、雅培公司在内的各种产品开发商的评估 诊断，Alere，Becton Dickinson，Quidel Corporation，Minute Molecular，FIND，The Bill & 梅琳达·盖茨基金会和西北全球健康基金会。从这些需求 通过积累经验，我们知道，评估需求和POC技术能力， 需要不是一次性的过程。相反，需求评估是一个不断重复的过程。 C-THAN技术培训中心将为POC培训和/或进行需求评估 技术产品开发人员在整个产品开发生命周期。调查人员将 培训和开展类似的需求评估的POC技术开发人员由C- 比.技术培训的具体目标是：1。促进和加强跨学科 关于POC开发、评估、实施和商业化的培训 低收入和中等收入国家与艾滋病毒/艾滋病有关的技术; 2.进行 对中低收入国家艾滋病毒/艾滋病感染者的POC技术进行需求评估; 3. 将临床需求、用户评估和影响分析结果传播给相关 持份者技术培训中心的主要目标是提供基础设施， 致力于POC技术需求评估的服务。我们的需求评估 方法的独特之处在于，我们确保POC技术开发人员考虑了各种 利益相关者，包括最终用户、患者、政策制定者、资助者、制造合作伙伴，以及 经销商这种多方利益相关者的方法确保了C- THAN在市场采用和可持续性方面的成功率很高。

Summary Technology Training and Dissemination Core (Technology Train Dis) The C-THAN Technology Training and Dissemination Core (Technology Train Dis) leverages over 12 years of teaching and expertise in conducting needs assessments for POC technologies from the Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management (Kellogg). Since 2006, our proposed Technology Train Dis team has trained over 300 MBA students conducted POC technology needs assessment in the following 18 countries: Botswana, Brazil, Cambodia, China, India, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. We have conducted these needs assessments for a variety of product developers, including Northwestern University, Abbott Diagnostics, Alere, Becton Dickinson, Quidel Corporation, Minute Molecular, FIND, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the Northwestern Global Health Foundation. From these needs gathering experiences, we know that assessing need and a POC technologies ability to meet a need is not a one-time process. Rather, needs assessment is a constant and iterative process. The C-THAN Technology Train Dis will train and/or conduct needs assessments for POC technology product developers throughout the product development lifecycle. Investigators will train and conduct similar needs assessments for POC technology developers selected by C- THAN. The Technology Train Dis specific aims are: 1. facilitate and enhance interdisciplinary training on the development, evaluation, implementation, and commercialization of POC technologies related to HIV/AIDS in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), 2. conduct needs assessments of POC technologies for HIV/AIDS infected patients in LMICs, and 3. Disseminate the results of clinical needs and user assessment and impact analysis to relevant stakeholders. The primary goal of the Technology Train Dis is to provide infrastructure and services dedicated to needs assessment of POC technologies. Our needs assessment approach is unique in that we ensure POC technology developers have considered a variety of stakeholders including, end users, patients, policy makers, funders, manufacturing partners, and distributors. This multi-stakeholder approach ensures technology prototypes supported under C- THAN will have a high rate of success for market adoption and sustainability.
