There are courses you could go on if your club can raise the money. Here's one in the Netherlands although the web page is in some weird foreign language :-þ There's one across the Channel in Cornwall and there are some in Denmark too. There's a lot more now than there were 10 years ago, have a google around.
An alternative is buying some basic equipment and teaching yourself from a book. I have The Tree Climber's Handbook and it outlines all the basic techniques and knots. If nothing else you could just buy this book and study it. That's what I did.
In theory it's possible to climb using just a single rope and nothing else by making a Swiss rope harness, but if you want a safe and easy start you'll need:
This is enough to get you into the tree and into a hammock, but you'll also want lanyards and more carabiners if you're going to move about in the tree canopy. Honey Brothers sell all of this but it's quite pricey so this isn't necessarily the cheaper option versus attending a course! And it's certainly not as safe.
A third option is to stay below 5 metres above a nice soft leafy forest floor and just climb with no equipment at all :-D
