    I have been out of work for 14 months and worry about the gap. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I am not sure how much to explain.

    I listed the volunteering and course under the same dates and kept the explanation to a sentence in the cover letter.

    Keep your skills fresh and mention anything recent. It shows momentum.
