Abstract

This paper describes the implementation of a mobile platform for post-training support as part of the Basic Health Information Systems for Data Capturers programme of the National Department of Health in South Africa. Actor-network theory is used to show how the phases of problematisation, interessement, enrolment and mobilisation are negotiated by the primum movens (training provider) to establish a mobile post-training support network. This paper concludes by extracting valuable pointers from the narrative towards the establishment of a well-functioning mobile post-training support network in a developing context. It shows that the establishment of a strong actor-network during training is crucial for establishing a successful mobile post-training support network.
