Lots of opportunities with local authorities round West Yorks at the moment. If they think you're experienced enough they'll probably get you to PTI, otherwise have a crack at it yourself. Do some prep work on fungi ID, think the AA arborist guide is the basis for what you have to know but may have moved on, legal responsibilities (surveyor, landowner etc) and BS terminology to describe work and you should be ok. It's a fairly intense few days but engage the instructor/assessor and don't panic.
