What happened to a class last month does not really afford any insight into what is gonna happen to a class next month....other than provide a "data point" that one cannot seriously rely upon. For example, training is traditionally seasonal with less in the summer and more in the spring/fall to provide additional manpower on the line during the peak season. As we move into the fall the training pipeline is gonna get turned up to 11.

That said, if you have a specific upcoming major "life event" (birth of a child, etc.) it would make sense to communicate that early and the scheduling folks will try to do what they can do to accommodate.
