Scheduling Database - How to Schedule a person to a session

I am using Microsoft Access 2003. I have two tables.

Table 1
Session Table: This table lists all available workshop sessions with the following fields,

SessionID
SessionName
SessionDate
SessionTime

Table2
Employees Table: This table lists all employees with the following fields,

EmployeeID
EmployeeName
EmployeeDepartment
EmployeeRole

I would like to build a form that I can have use to schedule an employee to a particular workshop schedule. For example, I would like to use a drop down menu to select the session, then I would like to use a check box or something to quickly select employees that I want to attend the session. Can someone help? I am stuck.
 
So a SessionName has many EmployeeName's and an Employeename can be assigned many SessionName's. A classic many-to-many situation. So you would create a "junction" table that has SessionID and EmployeeID. These two fields combined to make a multi-field primary key. Then you would build your form off of this table. Then the SessionID and EmployeeID controls could be comboboxes bound to the tables fields.
