I have been searching around today on how to obtain the list. I had in fact read the man pages, but found no references to what "groups" were available. In the man pages it references the : * groupinstall [...] * groupupdate [...] * grouplist [...]
But no specifics on how to get what "groups" are available.

Have you heard references of reading the documentation? 'man yum' provides all sorts of interesting ways to get information about groups.
But to the point - is there a list of valid groups for install?
Yes, but it varies repository to repository and how they were set up. Some use groups, some do not. Consult the documentation (man yum) for information. Specifically, you may want to reference the section about 'grouplist'.
