Work experience is not generally required before starting an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) course. The course is designed for individuals who have an interest in aircraft maintenance and want to pursue a career in the field.
However, some institutions may have certain prerequisites that applicants must meet before they can enroll in the course. For example, some institutions may require applicants to have completed a certain level of education, such as 10+2, or to have a certain level of proficiency in English.
Additionally, some institutions may also conduct an aptitude test to assess the candidates suitability for the course.
Its best to check with the institution where you plan to enroll for their specific requirements.
