Morphology
The meaning 'a period during which someone or something adjusts to a change' is directly compositional from 'transition' (a process or period of change) + 'time' (a span). This noun-noun combination follows a common, cross-linguistic pattern and would be readily understood by a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Transition time paints the picture of crossing a bridge from one place to another: the transition is the crossing and the time is the period you need to get across. So it means a period when someone is 'adjusting' to a change.
