About the IPA

Does learning the international phonetical alphabet helps you in any way in the process of learning languages?

I noticed a lot of dictionaries in french and english use it to show the correct pronunciation of certain words, but i.e. if I wanted to learn japanese or swahili, could the IPA help me to get a headstart in basic pronunciation or adapting to the foreign alphabet?
