The only safe answer is "it depends".
It depends on your career hopes and aspirations. It may provide valuable contacts and information sources if you are considering a career or business in Data Warehousing.
But there are associated costs. And are you considering such a career or business?
Visit their website, and decide for yourself.

They post very good analysis of IT news. It would be beneficial if you go along to some of the events. I was invited to a couple events for the Australian branch but couldn't spare the time.
