    Abstract1. An actively involved multidisciplinary committee was one of the strongest aspects of the program. This strategy helped to fully integrate the program and provided a wider distribution network for information related to the program. 2. Flexibility in the availability of the vaccine yielded greater take rates than in prior years. Providing extra coverage to off shifts, coverage for unique scheduling formats, and making the influenza vaccine available within departments and off campus buildings were key to getting employees to accept the immunization. 3. The ability to use the knowledge of a diverse committee membership aided in better analysis of the mechanics of the process. Changes were made between years as the committee continued to assess successes and failures among different employee groups and addressed administration venues and incentives for staff.
