It so depends on your child's readiness and, given the right circumstances, it just happens. There are people who train their babies, books on how to do it in a day and so on. It can easily cause friction and crying of Both mother and child. I ended up showing my child the ropes, so to speak. Got the potty chair, and practiced. Had other boys over who used the bathroom. When he was successful, I bought big boy pants (had Transformers and Superman on them!) I had promised him and let him wear them if he kept them dry. There was a lot of pride involved. The other child took longer since he was physically delayed, but the same process worked.

Do not scold them and follow their lead and it will happen before first grade.

If they are wet at night, be gentle and clean them up and remake the bed--it is really just a passing phase. My child got a shiny penny if the bed happened to be dry.
