From 22 to 25 July 2025, participants successfully completed the short course on Analysis of Electronic Health Record Data, offered by the Sub-Saharan Africa Consortium for Advanced Biostatistics Training (SSACAB), in collaboration with Moi University, the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, the University of the Witwatersrand. Participants gained practical skills in working with EHR data to inform health research and policy, with expert-led sessions, hands-on training, and real-world case studies. We extend our sincere appreciation to our dedicated facilitators, partners, and engaged participants whose enthusiasm and curiosity made this course a success.
Key highlights included:
- In-depth exploration of EHR structure and challenges
- Real-time data analysis sessions
- Networking and cross-institutional collaboration
- Discussions on ethical considerations and policy relevance
The course reinforced the importance of building data capacity to strengthen health systems and drive evidence-based decision-making across Africa.
