Welcome to the ICAN Website

The International Creative Ability Network (ICAN) is leading the way in providing high quality training in the Vona du Toit Model of Creative Ability (VdT MoCA) to occupational therapists and assistants seeking to enable clients to grow in motivation and skills to reach/recover their full potential.

The VdT MoCA enables occupational therapists to do occupational therapy and be occupational therapists. Equally, the model enables clients to experience mastery/success through participation in occupation. Inspired by the model, the name 'I can' relates the model well to the experience of healthcare professionals and clients alike.

ICAN provides the foundation training in the VdT MoCA plus a range of workshops, consultation and supportive post training/workshop initiatives. ICAN provides a service throughout the UK and abroad. Following eight years combination of studying, researching, teaching and implementing the model in practice, ICAN was formed by Wendy Sherwood MSc DipCOT, ICAN's Principal Trainer.
