Abstract

The healthcare system in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is a significant challenge due to the availability and competence of its healthcare workforce. Effective training and capacity-building programs are crucial for improving service delivery and achieving better health outcomes. However, the efficacy of these programs varies widely, influenced by various factors. This scoping review aims to map existing literature to identify key determinants that impact the success of healthcare professional training and capacity-building initiatives within the SSA context.
