The ellipses in my example were just where I left out implementation
details. You need to replace that with the variable holding your list.
form->select('Artists', $your_list, null, array('multiple' => 'checkbox'))
Also, I just noticed that your controller has:
$programs = $this->Software->Program->find(//etc.)
Make sure you set that var before rendering the view:
$this->set('programs', $programs);
You can substitute $programs for the find() call if you don't need to
do anything with the list after finding it:
$this->set('programs', $this->Software->Program->find(//etc.));
