Hand your society over to the next committee

The account belongs to the society, so the records survive every election.

  1. From Team, invite the incoming president with their email.
  2. Once they've joined, make them an owner.
  3. The new owner removes outgoing members when they're ready.

Everything you've created, your designs and every certificate stay with the society. Former members keep their own certificates in their Passports.

Prepare a handover while both committees are available

  1. List active sets, upcoming sends, open correction requests, template requests and unresolved billing or support conversations.
  2. Invite the incoming officer using their own account. Never hand over a shared password or your authenticator.
  3. Wait for them to accept and confirm they can open the correct society workspace.
  4. Have an existing owner grant the necessary ownership role and verify it before any outgoing owner leaves.
  5. Review the team list and remove outgoing access when it is no longer needed. Preserve at least one owner.
  6. Review connected sources, scanner links and other access-bearing links used by the old committee. Retire or replace access that should no longer remain active.
  7. Give the incoming committee the naming, design and approval conventions needed to keep future certificates consistent.

What stays with the society

The society's sets, designs and issued records remain in its organization workspace. Changing committee access does not transfer those records into the incoming officer's personal issuer account, and it does not remove certificates from former members' personal Passports.

If the last owner has already left

Ask the remaining owner to complete the transfer where possible. If nobody can manage ownership, contact support with the society and university details and explain the access problem. Do not create a second organization and assume it inherits the first one's records.
