I'm fairly certain that he did not specifically undergo mentat training. It was in the beginning of the first novel that his father discusses the fact that he has the ability, but since the impending attack he never has the opportunity to actually undergo the training.

Here's a quote:
"Do you think they hide because they've mutated and don't look . . . human
anymore?"
"Who knows?" The Duke shrugged. "It's a mystery we're not likely to solve.
We've more immediate problems -- among them: you."
"Me?"
"Your mother wanted me to be the one to tell you, Son. You see, you may have
Mentat capabilities."
