It is a technical specification that defines interoperable elearning content, so that a person can create a course in one application and have it exportable/usable in other platforms that support the SCORM standard. For instance, Articulate Storyline and similar training/couse content authoring software applications support SCORM.

SCORM is a standardised JavaScript wrapper that you add around e-learning modules to allow them to communicate with the host learning management system. The wrapper will report events such as whether the module has been started, completed or partially completed, and it can be a lot more sophisticated than that.
In my experience, the wrapper itself is entirely transparent to the user, so it should not introduce any accessibility issues that are not already in the e-learning module.
I did some functional testing of SCORM wrappers about 20 years ago. At the time the client was using SCORM v1.2. A validator was available that did some static tests on the XML manifest and some other things I have long forgotten. There are newer SCORM specifications, but I don't know if they got any traction because people were still using v1.2 long after the newer specifications were published.
I have seen enough of SCORM to know that I never want to work on it again, no matter how much anyone offers to pay.
