A level-3 CACHE award is supposed to be 180 hours, a certificate 619 hours and an extended diploma 1185 hours.

The award (180 hours) carries the same UCAS tariff points as half an A-level. This doesn't mean it's equivalent, though: you would need to check whether the course you want to apply for accepts it.
