Just type in multi-engine rating on your favorite search engine and up will pop thousands of results. Just about every school has a twin, but only few actually focus only multi-engine training. What I mean by that is a school might own a twin-engine aircraft, but because it is rarely flown the school chooses to focus most of their energy into primary training (i.e. private pilot training), and multi-engine program suffers. A few schools have realized that there is a need for this type of training and have spent a lot of time developing a syllabus that will help you effectively navigate your way through the training. My best advice for you is to ask a lot of questions, and find out as much as you can about their program (syllabus, how many people they have trained, etc.) before making your final decision.
