What makes you so sure they didn't have a degree? If they did get a working visa, then they probably did have a degree or at best, a diploma and TEFL certificate.
Just because someone is on a WHV, doesn't mean they don't have a degree. Applying for a WHV just makes you almost instantly employable as the school can legally hire you.
Do you have a diploma of any sort? I know of a teacher that had a Diploma from Australia and he studied it for 2.5 years. He go the Australian Qualifications Framework to write a letter stating that the level of studies were equivalent to that of a Bachelor degree. This was about 10 years ago though... gee... showing my age now.
Teachers in the past have been able to procure a Work Visa based only on a Diploma, but it's not a clear cut guarantee. Will largely depend on the visa office processing your visa.
I know it's tough for you, but the only real way to know is to give it a try.
