In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, the ability to quickly turn ideas into working solutions is more valued than ever — both in industry and education. In the newest Oracle Academy Tech Chat podcast, Ing. Roberto Capancioni — an experienced computer consultant and educator — shares his insights with Orlaith Lawton, Senior Marketing Manager Oracle Academy EMEA, and Roberta Battagli, Oracle Academy Program Manager, Italy, on the transformative role of low-code development, specifically through Oracle APEX, and how educators and students can harness its potential.
With nearly 30 years of experience in IT and a deep background in electronics engineering, Roberto Capancioni has helped countless organizations in the utilities and services sectors embrace digital transformation. Currently focused on Oracle APEX projects, he also trains and consults with educational institutions, helping bridge the gap between classroom concepts and real-world technology.
Oracle APEX is a low-code/no-code development platform that empowers users to build secure, scalable web applications — quickly and with little need for in-depth coding experience. This has enormous implications for both educators and students.
Roberto’s top advice is to take advantage of the free resources available. Platforms like apex.oracle.com and Oracle Cloud’s APEX Service offer free, hands-on environments for experimentation and learning. And educators and students can access Oracle APEX accounts through Oracle Academy.
“Learning to build applications with a low-code approach can really make a difference in your career. Companies are looking for people who can turn ideas into concrete solutions — quickly,” he noted.
