She added that the award shall include the following categories at the local level: General Education; Education for People with Special Needs; Creating Knowledge Networks; New Media and Education; Education and the Sustainable Environment; and Education and Community Service.

There are five other general educational categories within the UAE and throughout the Arab world, namely: Higher Education; Educational Research; Projects and Innovative Educational Programmes, Educational Authoring for Children, and a Written Academic Work about the Patron of the Award, President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
