Equivalency of UK Edexcel BTEC Level 5 in Computing and systems development

[victoriousAJ]

Hello!
I'm creating my express entry profile however, I'm stuck as I'm confused what should I mention under education.
I've done Edexcel BTEC Level 5 in Computing and System Development and I'm not sure what exactly that qualification is equivalent to in Canada.
There are options like:
1). Secondary Diploma
2). One year program at a university, college....
3). Two year program at a university, college....
The Diploma I've done is of two years however, I managed to finish it within a year by taking extra subjects in college.

Kindly help me with my query.

Did you get an ECA for this qualification? if yes, then you have to choose according to the assessment you received.

I don't need to do ECA as I'm applying as a dependent. I've already got that done for my wife. I tried using their free assessment tool to check however, there is no BTEC qualification listed.

If you are not claiming points for your education then there is no need to mention it in the EE profile. However, you can provide details of your qualifications in the personal history section post ITA.
