This would be as opposed to "distance education."

Another option might be "non-distance education" (or perhaps face-to-face teaching"). I would avoid the use of anything with the term "traditional." :-)

Finally, two other options might be classroom- or school-based education.

I hope this helps!

laycock: En ese caso, quizás "classroom hours" sea una buena opción. De todos modos, habría que ver el texto. Based on what you've included in your note, perhaps "519 (of which) being classroom hours" :-)
