On last October 18 France Minister of Immigration, Philippines Foreign Affairs Ministry and Philippines Ministry for Education attended in Paris the signature of a joint statement intended to reinforce the bilateral relation between their two countries in the field of the exchanges of students and work immigration.
Philippines is the first country (outside E.U.) to officially work with France on immigration in the scope of the new French Immigration Laws to allow skilled people (30 skills are concerned: like nurse, I.T. ,... I do not have the full list) or Students to get a visa for working or studying in France. It's not yet an agreement, but it will surely possible in some months to get these types of visas for Filipino Citizens.
Here are the official declarations:
