I'm not sure what you have in mind.  But when I start a new file and
enter C-c C-e document RET s TAB, I get completion for the classes
starting with "s":

,----[ *Completions* ]
| Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
| In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

| Possible completions are:
| scrartcl                         scrbook
| scrlttr2                         scrreprt
| slides
`----

,----[ <f1> f TeX-arg-document RET ]
| TeX-arg-document is a compiled Lisp function in `latex.elc'.
| (TeX-arg-document OPTIONAL &optional IGNORE)

| Insert arguments to documentclass.

With a quite old AUCTeX version (Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS):

,----[ <f1> v AUCTeX-version RET ]
| AUCTeX-version is a variable defined in `tex-site.el'.
| Its value is "11.84"

| Documentation:
| AUCTeX version.
| If not a regular release, the date of the last change.

Bye, Reiner.
