Fabricated Induced Illness (FII) is a rare form of child abuse that can often go unnoticed. The signs and symptoms of abuse are very widespread, which makes it difficult to identify.

User friendly learning by progressing forward or to recheck that subject matter fully before moving on. The ability to stop and start course learning an asset, then pick up where you have left off.
