First of all, we should know what background enhancement is, so as to understand why background enhancement is needed to study abroad, or why everyone needs background enhancement.

What is the origin of the concept of backstage promotion?

To put it bluntly, background enhancement is to improve comprehensive competitiveness, that is, it is a comprehensive name of soft power except degree, certificate, GPA, achievement, IELTS, TOEFL and so on. Don't look at the booming background of studying abroad. In fact, parents in our country have long been far ahead of the world in this respect. Don't you see that all kinds of interest classes and competitions have prizes? These are all areas of background enhancement. So why doesn't our country have the concept of backstage promotion? The answer is eight words: no planning, blindly follow the trend.

Now we call the activities that are planned, targeted, developed and can enhance the soft power as background enhancement activities.

Why do you want to carry out backstage promotion activities?

First: Why is it so popular to study abroad? Very simple and straightforward to tell you, because foreign universities need you to have extracurricular activities with high gold content! This is the information you must submit in the application! Whether it is PS (personal statement), CV (resume), other essays (papers) or even a list of extracurricular activities, you need to show your background promotion activities. Therefore, it is not a question of whether you want to do it or not, it is necessary.

Second: The second reason is that the backstage promotion activities are done well, and it is to improve one's ability. Of course, this promotion cannot be guaranteed to be absolute and essential. However, a real background promotion activity with high gold content can at least enhance your academic, intellectual and moral soft power.

Third, it is helpful for future academic development and career breakthrough. The content of background promotion must closely focus on the two core points of academic development and career breakthrough, and be carried out in a planned and targeted manner. Can play a practical role in promoting schools and undertakings.
