How does SSHIA training support the national health information system strategy of South Sudan?
SSHIA training is aligned with the South Sudan National Health Information System (NHIS) Strategy and contributes to building the human resource capacity needed to implement the strategy effectively.

The South Sudan NHIS Strategy identifies human resource capacity as one of the key pillars for strengthening the national health information system. SSHIA training directly supports this pillar by building the skills of health workers, data managers, and IT professionals in the tools and methods needed to collect, manage, analyse, and use health data effectively. SSHIA works closely with the Ministry of Health, WHO, UNICEF, and other partners to ensure that training content is aligned with national priorities and standards. SSHIA-trained professionals are deployed across all ten states of South Sudan, contributing to a more capable and resilient health information workforce.
SSHIA also contributes to the development of national training curricula and competency frameworks for health informatics. Members of the SSHIA Training Committee participate in national working groups on health workforce development and health information system strengthening, ensuring that SSHIA training remains relevant and responsive to the evolving needs of the South Sudan health system.
