Samuel established institutions in order to train men for the office they were destined for. Here they studied law and its interpretation, along with sacred music and poetry. (see 1 Samuel 19).

Another Answer:

The concept of a group of Prophets or school of prophets is embedded deep within the world of the Old Testament though at many times they may be referred to as "wise men" or counselor's. It was custom of the period in which they lived that kings / rulers would have a group of "prophets" for want of a better word who they would seek to advise them on matters of state and religion.

through out The Bible we see this all over the place the first one i could find was in 1 Samuel 10:10 which says

When they arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit of God came upon him in power, and he joined in their prophesying.

we also see in story's of Daniel whilst in exile and of moses during the exodus that both the king Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon and the Pharaoh of Egypt in the exodus had "adviser's" or prophets whom they sort. p
