You're in luck, IBM has prepared two assembler courses and there's a third one coming up this autumn. These two give you the basics:

Then if you want to read books for free, there's at least three authors you might want to look up: David Woolbright, Bill Qualls and Edward Bosworth. Use a search engine to look up their homepages, all of them have written books/articles about IBM mainframe assembler.

You do not need a mainframe access for practicing, you can get a free assembler compiler + emulator from z390 dot org, or you can download TK5.
