Edvantage is taking on a new name – EdvantagePerks (in English) and EdvantagePlus (in French). This will bring the core member value of “perks” to the forefront for all participants, and better describe the program and its offers, contests, events, and more. The website URL (https://edvantage.ca/) will remain unchanged. For current Edvantage members, this name change has no impact on your login information. Not registered?
