A random list of what? How do you define "random" here?
Is this intended as a programming exercise, or something else?
Please tell us the context of the question, and show us where you need help.

I apologize for not explaining the problem well.
A group of 100 teachers are attending a teach the teacher conference over 7 days. Teachers and groups should be selected at random.
2 teachers (A&B) teach 1 (C)
then (C) teaches another (D)
C cannot teach A or B
this repeats randomly among the 100 until all are accounted for

You didn't really answer my questions. What do you want from us?
Is it one teaches two, or two teach one?
Is it one teaches two, or two teach one?

So the original question had it wrong, saying "A teacher gets to train 2 other teachers"? A diagram of the expected relationships would make it clearer just what things need to look like. (You mentioned C teaching D; do you need someone else also teaching D? That's the sort of thing you could show in a diagram.)
If I wanted to make such a list, I might make a table or diagram involving 100 numbered individuals, and then just randomly assign a number 1 to 100 to each of the teachers. The first step makes sure you satisfy whatever the rules are, and the second randomizes it.
