There is not guild nor is there a school to be taught. The Butler/Mistress is taught by the house Chamberlin or House Mother who over sees the training of all servants within the household, both inside and out. A good Butler/Mistress of the house is always in need and will never be without work. The better the perception, the higher ranked the client or master of the house. A butler with at least a bonus of 4 in Insight and Perception can always find lodging at minor noble or rich merchants home for a short time, to help straighten out the kinks within the staff of the current home or estate.
