off--preposition (used in numerous compound-words)
eg:-seeing-off
Also adverbial particle such as seeing-off in the verb entry;
seeing-off is contrasted with on, indicating the ending of something arranged, planned, etc
eg:- The seeing-off of the ceremony=ended.

see off 動詞片語,其中off 是介詞,為某人送行。而seeing-off 是複合形容詞由動名詞+介詞合成,修飾其後名詞,意思為告別式,两个截然不同

to see someone off: 及物動詞+受詞+受詞補語
off是副詞,表示移動離開,在上面是當作受詞補語用。

see someone off = accompany a person to the point of departure
They came to the station to see him off.
see p.1580 New Oxford American Dictionary (third edition)

a seeing-off ceremony = a ceremony in which you see someone who is leaving their present job/place

seeing是自「及物動詞see」衍生的「動名詞」,用連字號加上副詞off,放在名詞ceremony前,形成一個「複合名詞」(noun compound)。

類似的「複合名詞」有:
a waiting list
a swimming pool (= a pool in which you can swim)
a shopping center
a writing desk

~ing有可能是現在分詞,當作形容詞用,如:
a dancing girl = a girl who is dancing now
這詞的主重音落在後面的名詞girl上。
主重音大聲又清楚,次重音清楚但不大聲,弱音節的母音模糊或省略。

~ing如果是動名詞,和後面的名詞形成「複合名詞」時,意思就不同了:
a dancing girl = a girl whose job is to dance with someone else
這詞的主重音落在前面的動名詞dancing上。

由分詞片語所形成的「複合形容詞」
a broken-down car = a car which has broken down
a laid-off worker = a worker who has been laid off
