It's typically about 6 month to a year training program. Mine really wasn't too time consuming. I had class 2 hours a week. I had to have a meeting with a partner one hour a week. I had an hour or so of assignments and I had to coach 2 people for practice each week. So maybe 6-8 hours a week for 6 months.
Probably the hardest part was coaching in front of the teacher and the whole class. I had to do this 3 times during the 6 months and it's unsettling to do it knowing you're such an amateur and that the class is going to critique you when you're done.
I know other programs vary. I'm only familiar with what I did.
