For simplicity, let's say currently facilities ZXX and ZXY are showing a training success rate of 50%. They each need 12 more cpcs to get to the national average, so in order to project that they would need 24 trainees. They both have 2 slots on the current academy list.
A few years ago though ZXX had a major change in culture, or training, or trainers, or any number of factors and in 2015 their training rate was 100% and once that's imported it bumps the average success rate way up to 75%. Now they only need 16 trainees to project 12 cpcs, so they don't need people from the academy anymore.
Inversely, ZXY took over a huge chunk of complex airspace, or got some new dickhead supes, or any number of things in 2015 and they washed every single trainee they got that year. That brings the average down to 25%. Now they need 48 trainees to project out to that 12 CPC number, so all of a sudden they get almost everyone from the next few academy classes.
Obviously these are drastic examples and not exactly how it works, but it's the general idea. It's likely to be much smaller changes but I tried to use numbers that would make the math simpler for myself to explain. Even small changes though can completely shake up the lists you're seeing.
