1st Logo (1973?-1979?)

Logo: On a black background, various transparent yellow rectangles, each with a different angle, start fading in one by one. The text "ACCESS" in an Art Deco font is being wiped below, aswell as the text "ALBERTA" in 90 degrees next to it.

Variant: A still version and a few in-credit versions exist.

FX/SFX: The rectangles fading in, the wiping.

Music/Sounds: A rather strange descending tune which leads to a fanfare, with an announcer.

Availability: Extinct. The standard version of the logo is particularly lost, while there existed a spoof version spotted in their blooper reel from 1975.

2nd Logo (1978?-1983?)

Logo: On a black background, we see two sliding yellow lines spinning inwards, whilst a trail effect is seen around them. Once they connect together, they get quite smaller, giving off a yellow glow that forms the text "ACCESS". An orange spark emits from the top of the text, leaving a small explosion and the logo's symbol zooming in. As "ACCESS" moves down, the text "ALBERTA EDUCATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION" zooms in below. They all zoom out.

Variant: A few in-credit versions exist.

FX/SFX: Scanimation.

Music/Sounds: A deep synth whoosh mixed with computer beeps, then a horn fanfare when the text is being formed. Sometimes, an announcer is heard over saying "The following educational programming is brought to you by Access, the Alberta Educational Communications Corporation."

Availability: Seen at the beginning of documentaries by Access Network from the era, like Eureka and Landscapes. Sometimes, PBS airings of Eureka used the OET logo instead. It is currently unknown if this appeared on other programs/shows.

3rd Logo (Late 80's-Early 90's)

Logo: TBA.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: TBA.

Availability: TBA.
