We will get points according to the ECA assessments. Not by our original degree. For example one can have a masters degree which is one year long but ECA states it is 3 years long Canadian bachelors degree equivalent then he/she will get points for 3 years bachelors degree. Your university may award you a degree within one year (if you are a genious) or can take 5 years but IRCC will consider what equivalency duration ECA gives you.
According to ECA I have a diploma (two years) and bachelors degree (four years) so I am fulfilling the condition of two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees one must be three or more years long.
If you check the IRCC website link for ECA you will read that they only takes any foreign education into consideration if the candidate has an ECA report for the same. And award every point based on ECA assessment, read below -
If you want to become an Express Entry candidate, and you have had an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA), you can find out below how many points you will get.

Your result will be marked on your report as the Canadian equivalent to the foreign degree, diploma or certificate you had assessed. Find the result in the first column of the table below and you can see information about your points.
