The principal's leadership of ICT is the key factor in the construction of school informatization and an important guarantee to promote the deep integration of information technology and education. Through analyzing the leadership standards and promotion programs of ICT in China and the United States and comparing the applicable targets, major tasks and specific contents of two countries' standards, this study finds that the two countries have differences in the leadership system of primary and secondary schools, leading to a broader range of U.S. standards and a clearer tasks in China. After comparing the curriculum structure, evaluation methods, safeguard measures and certification methods of upgrading projects between the two countries, this study finds that the STLI / STL program of U.S. has a wider range of courses and lectures to meet individual needs of learners. And the content of "upgrading projects" in China is more targeted, but there is still much room for improvement in certification methods and guarantee measures. On this basis, it is suggested that the training mode should be innovated, the implementation of the curriculum needs to be standardized and the certification mechanism should be guaranteed in order to promote principals'leadership of informatization.
