Hi Tadesse,
If you are just looking for average salary, download file from google for A+ certification where you can learn about the computer and devices and work as a network technician or computer technician which you earn a pretty fair amount of money, then you can concentrate on getting in deep in IT.

It is very important to understand as a fresher or as a college grad pay is not everything in the initial days, as if you learn good things pay is going to definitely rise if you prove yourself. So keep learning , which should never end.
Keep going there are no boundaries, sky is never a limit for those who want to learn and grow. Hardwork Hardwork Hardwork. There will be days ahead to do smart work , unless you reach some height you have to do hardwork.

There are many IT course which could help you get the job and so called "average salary" however, keep in mind that you must justify the learning to get that. Hence, first choose the path or interest in which you want to develop your carrier and then look for the course offered.

The exam is not exactly 'cheap' but passing it will help you immensely if you ever seek a job at Cisco or any of its many partner Companies. As the largest market share holder, Cisco devices are almost everywhere and your certification will certainly help you no matter where you go.

The course by itself can introduce you some technology. You have to get some experience with at least some labs also.
I did the Networking Academy https://www.netacad.com/ from Cisco, 15 years ago. 10 months lenght and that changed my life. Today they have other topics, not olny netowkring, as automation, development, operating system.
You can make very short trainings, most of them 5 days for some vendors that can give you very interesting knowledge. But I have to say to you, a certification is another step that can give you more visibility into the market and better chance to get a job with a good/average salary.
There are some trending topics into the market:
- Cisco Network Automation - https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/training/digital-network-architecture.html
- Amazon Cloud - https://aws.amazon.com/training/
- Microsoft Azure Cloud - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/azure-training.aspx

If you want to be developer you can start with Python and Java.
If you wanted to be both developer and administrator then you can start with DevOps tracks which is upfront in the current industry.
If you are not good at development domain then you can go with CCNA-R&S, CCNA-Security, MCSA or RHCSA.
