They sure do. All new Umpires must attend our New Candidate Training Course. Starting in mid-to-late February new umpires will meet once a week, typically starting at 6pm on a weeknight, for 1.5 hours to learn the basics of umpiring. During this time additional mechanics training clinics are also available. There are also members of the association who are more than willing to meet-up with you throughout the season to provide feedback, discuss scenarios, and address any questions/concerns you have.
