There is an example. It should works for scaffolded User model with :role atribute.

<% for role in %w(customer provider admin) %>
  <p>
    <%= check_box_tag "role", role, (params[:role] && params[:role].include?(role)) %>
    <%=h role %>
  </p>
<% end %>

first read and understand the brief Ganesh pointed out. If user can have only one role, you need radio buttons or select list. For multiple roles, you need a Role model and check boxes.
