These are good questions which deserve more than an answer like "it just depends".
First question: how long to establish? Well, for each person it is different. Some are quick to catch on and for others it takes more time. For some, 2 - 3 months or sooner and others it takes years.
Rather than ask such a question, the real question you should ask is: am I improving my musical ear awareness every day and learning to recognize and categorize what I learn better and better? That is, is my ear improving? Acquiring relative pitch may take months or years but having an ear like a great composer like Mozart takes a lifetime.
This leads to the answer to the second question: can I speed up the process? Sure you can by practicing more often your ear training drills, but the amount of time it will take depends on how fast your ear can grow accustom to the sounds you are hearing.
So I would advise to not take any shortcuts to your ear training and develop at a moderate pace that you set. If you haven't begun yet or don't know where to start the following resources will help:
I hope this helps and please let me know how these courses are helping you!
