Workforce Resources
For Employers:
This section includes information for employers looking to grow or improve their workforce. Employers of all sizes can utilize these resources and “How To Guides” on a variety of subjects. Click the links below to gather more information available to employers through these valuable programs and opportunities. As Nevada continues to appeal to out of state employers and our population continues to grow, identifying skilled workforce will become increasingly difficult so utilizing every resource available will be imperative. Employers can start training new and existing employees while enhancing existing skills so an effective workforce can also be grown from within.
