Rebman founded the Information Technology Management Institute that provides outreach programs for continuing education students, certificate and training programs for local San Diego IT companies and research presentations. He is also a member of the San Diego Information Technology Directors group and serves on the editorial board of several journals.
Rebman also has been active with the Decision Sciences Institute for more than 10 years, serving on both the national and regional levels. On the national level he served on the Programs and Meetings committee. On the regional level he has been active with Southwest Decision Sciences Institute serving as author, reviewer, discussant and session chair. Rebman was also a track chair for Western DSI. For the last five years he has served SWDSI as secretary and publications coordinator. As publications coordinator he reduced CD conference publication costs from $1,800 to $188.

While in Mississippi, Rebman revived the Associated Graduate Student Body (AGSB) and renamed it as the Graduate Student Council (GSC), an organization that would soon represent all university graduate students. During his tenure, he increased funding to more than $60K, created programs for graduate student research, orientation, furniture exchange and graduate computer and copy services. The results of these programs led the GSC to receive the National Graduate Student Association of the Year Award from the National Association of Graduate and Professional Students.
