Hi Watrevir, Jack from the Arb Association here. I can't speak for the Land Skills course but our Intermediate course sole purpose is to be a stepping stone and bridge the wide gap between the Basic Tree Survey & Inspection (BTSI) and the Professional Tree Inspection (PTI) courses. To add there will be 2 tutors at our intermediate course allowing for 1 to 1 support to all the attendees to ensure they are ready for the PTI. We also include a Visual Tree Assessment walk (VTA) which we don't believe is offered by Land Skills. Finally, the tutor is a highly qualified Arboricultural Consultant who is also the PTI tutor which will be very helpful when you progress to the PTI. If you have any more question feel free to ask or you can give our training team a call on 01242 522152. Just connect to the training line. Regards.
