(4)Develop, in cooperation with appointing authorities and others, training and educational programs for employees in the city service.
(5)Investigate, from time to time, the operation and effect of this Part, and of the rules, and report his findings and recommendations to the commission and to the mayor.
(6)Make and publish annual reports regarding the work of the department, and such special reports as he considers desirable, to the commission and to the mayor.
