Comprehensive and integrated EPI training package Development Consultant (ID: 2604562)

Purpose of the Consultancy

Provide end-to-end technical leadership to rapidly design a unified, competency-based training package and conduct Training of Trainers (ToT) for selected national training institutions and EPI national officers, enabling them to cascade nationwide after the consultancy.

Background

The Somalia Federal Ministry of Health, in collaboration with WHO, UNICEF and other partners, aims to enhance the capacity of the national immunization program through a comprehensive training initiative. This initiative will cover a spectrum of training modules designed for various stakeholders involved in immunization, including vaccinators, mid-level managers, data persons, cold chain managers and technicians, social mobilizers, surveillance focal persons. The primary goal is to strengthen the overall immunization system, ensuring equitable access, and high-quality vaccine delivery across Somalia.

Somalia has made significant strides in improving immunization coverage, yet challenges persist such as:

• Vertical approach to programming

• Inefficient trainings

• Lack of skilled HRH

• Unequal distribution of HR and capacities

Therefore, Somalia wants to break the status quo by moving away to vertical and multiple trainings to advocate and strengthen an integrated approach to training within the perspective of Primary Health Care using immunization as an entry point. This comprehensive training program seeks to address gaps in knowledge and skills among key immunization personnel. By investing in capacity building, we aim to boost the effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of the immunization programme.

CO introduced PCV into the national immunization schedule to reduce morbidity and mortality from pneumococcal diseases through a campaign mode in May 2025. Following it in sequence. Rota was introduced through routine immunization in the months of July and August 2025. The post-campaign coverage survey for PCV indicates 76% coverage, compared with 78% administrative coverage. A Post-Introduction Evaluation (PIE) is planned to identify the lessons from the introduction. Further, Somalia plans to introduce a booster dose of the diphtheria-containing vaccine, switch the formulation from pentavalent to hexavalent, and introduce a Hepatitis B Birth dose and a rubella-containing vaccine in the near future. The Consultant will:

• Enhance the skills and knowledge of vaccinators for the safe, effective delivery of potent vaccines.

• Strengthen the capacity of mid-level managers in standard immunization programme management, specifically planning service delivery, monitoring, and evaluation of the immunization programme.

• Equip personnel with the necessary skills for the introduction of new vaccines and/or change of vaccine formulations, ensuring a smooth integration into the existing immunization schedule.

• Improve the technical capabilities of cold chain technicians for the proper management of vaccine storage and supply distribution and transportation.

• Provide comprehensive pre-campaign training to ensure the success of upcoming immunization campaigns.

• Improve the skills of communication and community involvement for immunization among Health workers and Health Managers.

• Provide guidance on new and under-utilized vaccine introduction and basics; standards-recognized training material should be used.
