The Erasmus Program is a European Union program so as to encourage higher education institutions to cooperate with each other. In this program, it is aimed that all member countries of the European Union as well as candidate countries for membership produce joint projects with each other and have short-term student and academic staff exchanges. Since 2004, our staff and students have participated in this exchange program. They undoubtedly encountered some problems during this period. In this research, the aim is to describe frequently encountered problems by the academic staff and to propose recommendations for the solution about the Erasmus Teaching Staff Mobility Programme. This study is a qualitative research. The data for this research were obtained from twenty academic staff in two state universities (Ondokuz Mayıs University and Erzincan University) in academic year 2015-2016. Semi-structured interview is used as the data collection tool. At the end of the study, it can be said that participants have joined the programme for “recognizing educational systems of a different country”, “vocational development”, “gaining abroad experience”.
