The Alberta Chapter Design Award Program recognizes outstanding educational facilities in the province
of Alberta. The program follows criteria from A4LE’s LEsolutions Planning & Design Awards Program
and the Pacific Northwest Region’s Pinnacle Award Program. This ensures that the Alberta Chapter

learning projects which positively impact teaching and learning and result from a sound planning process
reflecting the needs and expectations of the community.
