Is AB-1825 Training Required for Employees Outside California?

We've written an article online discussing the issue of AB-1825 required sexual harassment training for companies outside California. You can find read it here:

An excerpt:

One of the more misunderstood aspects of California's Sexual Harassment Training Law (AB-1825) is who exactly it applies to when a company has operations outside of California. For a company whose business is entirely California-based, the law is pretty clear. If it has 50 or more employees (or subcontractors), then it must provide sexual harassment training all supervisory employees.

But what if most of the company's operations are located outside California? What if, for example, you have over 50 employees outside California, and a small number of employees inside California? Do you still need to provide sexual harassment training for your supervisors? If so, which ones? All of your supervisors? Or just the ones supervising California employees?
