Consider a functional resume. It won't hold you to the same constraints as a typical resume laying out all the years you've worked. It's a resume more for whether you have experience doing the job or not...Check this link out when you can:

http://career-advice.monster.com/re...ical-resume-or-functional-resume/article.aspx

Or Google "Functional Resume examples"

If they ask in the interview...well, let them know you've been doing some type of continued education while job searching. Could be enrolling back in college or checking out a site like www.gcflearnfree.org, coding/business sites, or youtube tutorials. Just make sure you can back it up with technical skills...they may call you on it.

Good luck!
