History
In 1917, the Alberta Teachers’ Alliance (the Alliance) was created in response to teachers leaving the profession in droves for better salaries and working conditions. Its inaugural annual meeting was held in Edmonton during Easter week of 1918. The ATA is proud to continue to advocate for public education and the teaching profession by serving its members through professional development opportunities, collective bargaining, professional help and advice, and educational research
