Why it matters here
HR training challenges facing Sparks teams
Washoe County counts 213,416 private-sector jobs (BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, 2025 annual averages, retrieved 2026-07-27) spread over 14,199 employer establishments, and 95 percent of those establishments have fewer than 50 employees (Census County Business Patterns, 2023, retrieved 2026-07-27). Most run lean HR teams. When one manager mishandles a complaint, there is rarely a specialist down the hall to catch it.

Nevada employment context
HR compliance for Nevada employers
Nevada does not mandate harassment prevention training for private employers. Discrimination and harassment claims run through NRS 613.330, enforced by the Nevada Equal Rights Commission alongside the EEOC, which logged 1,396 Nevada charge receipts in fiscal year 2025 (EEOC Table E1b, FY 2025, retrieved 2026-07-27). Federal case law still sets the liability standard: under the Faragher and Ellerth decisions, an employer that shows a real policy and documented manager training holds an affirmative defense to supervisor harassment claims. That makes a fixed two-year training cycle a sensible internal standard for Sparks employers even without a statute. Catapult delivers that training to Sparks teams live online, with a completion record for every attendee.

Good to know
Sparks HR training questions
Do Nevada employers need a written harassment policy?
No Nevada statute requires one, but both the Nevada Equal Rights Commission and the EEOC treat a written policy plus manager training as the baseline of reasonable care under federal case law. Most Sparks employers adopt both; it is the first thing an investigator asks to see.
Yes. Every session is live online and open to anyone in Nevada. Sessions are scheduled on Eastern Time and Sparks is on Pacific Time, 3 hours behind Eastern, so a noon Eastern start is a 9:00 AM seat locally. In-person seats exist only in Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina; everywhere else attends virtually.
The catalog covers leadership and management, harassment prevention, professional development, technology skills and HRCI and SHRM certification prep. For Sparks employers, demand concentrates where local employment does: hospitality and food service accounts for 31,452 jobs in Washoe County (BLS QCEW, 2025 annual averages).
Nearly all. HRCI and SHRM approval is listed on each course page, and completion certificates document your hours. If your team holds PHR, SPHR, SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP credentials, Catapult sessions slot directly into their recertification plans.
Yes, and it is often the better fit for cohorts of 10 or more. Catapult runs private sessions for Sparks employers live online or on-site, scheduled around shifts and time zones, with the same HRCI and SHRM credit and completion records.
