Training Coordinator — Greater Bahr el Ghazal

The Training Coordinator manages the Wau regional hub’s full training operation: scheduling the quarterly certified course calendar, coordinating the regional trainer team, managing enrolment and fee-waiver processing, and ensuring every course runs to the association’s quality standards. The coordinator is the hub’s organisational heart — the person trainers, participants and county partners all rely on, and the guardian of the training records that feed the certification and verification systems.

The role reports to the Director of Training at the national secretariat and works closely with the regional mentorship coordinator, county health departments and the membership services desk. It includes regular travel within the greater Bahr el Ghazal region to support county-based deliveries and partner workshops.

Training Coordinator — Greater Bahr el Ghazal is part of the South Sudan Health Informatics Association’s careers programme — work that sits at the heart of the association’s mission to strengthen the health information foundations of the national health system. This vacancy is open for applications through the Work With Us page until the stated closing date, within the Training Directorate. Applicants should submit a CV and cover letter through the application form on the vacancy detail page.

The association’s approach combines three elements that its field evidence shows matter most: certified people, disciplined routines and practical tools. Its training programme certifies health workers in data collection, quality assurance and data use; its mentorship network embeds those skills in county practice through supportive supervision; and its published standards and guidelines give every facility a common professional language for recording, checking and acting on information.

Members and partners are encouraged to engage directly with this work. Members can join the mentorship network, contribute to the knowledge base, and enrol in certified courses at preferential rates. Institutional partners can explore collaboration windows through the partnership pages, and county health departments can request mentorship support through the association’s programme offices. Progress across all association programmes is reported openly through the transparency and accountability pages, in keeping with the publication discipline the association asks of the health system itself.
