Hi all!

I am a student working on a research project, and my ArcGIS license expires when I graduate. The project website has an ArcGIS dashboard that periodically requires updates when new data is added, and will carry on long after I graduate. I am currently the owner of the feature layer and dashboard and have it shared to a group with editing on. What is the best way to set this up long term? I don't want the feature layer and dashboard to become inaccessible to editing once my account is deactivated. 

Is the best way just to transfer ownership of the content before that happens?

I am also looking into shared update groups, because of the way the data is edited, sometimes new fields have to be added. This works best if other group members can add fields, instead of just the owner. I know this gives group members owner-like access, so would it affect access differently in the case of the owner's account becoming deactivated?

Thank you for your time!
